Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells of ancient Mexico's Aztec Empire through an epic creation myth that parallels the arrival of the Spanish Conquistadors. It explores themes of imperialism, warfare, and cultural conflict. The author juxtaposes the two cultures, their values, and their gods to create a portrait of the moment in history when the two worlds met. The story unfolds through the eyes of Azora, a young Aztec woman, and Kalca, a Tlascalan Prince. The arrival of Spanish conquistadors with their 'strange music' and Cross-bearing priests precipitates a clash of faiths as the Aztec people are forced to confront the power of an unfamiliar God. Their story illuminates the profound impact of cultural collisions, the power of faith, and the loss of innocence that often accompanies change.
