«Recuerda siempre que si tu hermanastro Enrique muriera sin dejar herederos, tu hermanito Alfonso sería rey de Castilla; y si Alfonso muriera sin dejar descendencia, tú, Isabel, serías reina de Castilla. El trono sería tuyo por derecho, y que la desgracia caiga sobre quien intente arrebatártelo.»
Una fantástica historia centrada en los primeros años de Isabel la Católica, la más extraordinaria reina de España. Su infancia y adolescencia, a los cuidados de una madre ambiciosa y desequilibrada, su vida en la corte de su hermano Enrique IV y finalmente su Ascensión al Trono del brazo de Fernando de Aragón.
Intrigas, amores clandestinos y escándalos palaciegos se suceden en una inolvidable novela donde la realidad histórica aparece magníficamente reflejada por la pluma de la autora. A esta primera entrega de una saga de tres volúmenes le seguirán España para sus soberanos y Las hijas de España.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“Remember that if your step brother Henry dies without producing an heir, your little brother Alfonso would be king of Castile; and if Alfonso were to die without leaving any children, you, Isabella, would be queen of Castile.  The throne would be yours by birthright, and may misfortune fall upon whoever tries to seize it from you."
A fascinating story centered on the first years of Isabel the Catholic’s life, the most extraordinary queen of Spain. From her childhood and adolescence, to growing up under the care of an ambitious and unbalanced mother, her life in her brother Henry IV’s court, and finally her ascension to the throne alongside Ferdinand II of Aragón.
Conspiracies, secret love affairs, and palace scandals all intertwine in an unforgettable novel where historical reality is magnificently reflected by a masterful author. This is the first installment of a saga of three volumes which will be followed by
Spain for Its Sovereigns
and
The Daughters of Spain
.
