About this ebook
The book tells the story of Roger Hawkshaw, a young British man who is shipwrecked off the east coast of Mexico before the arrival of Cortés. He must adapt to the ways of the indigenous tribes to survive, and through his skill in battle, he earns their respect. However, his towering height makes it difficult for him to blend in, and he must hide his true identity. As he becomes deeply involved in the culture, he forms a bond with a native princess and a woman named Malinche, who later becomes Cortés' mistress. Roger becomes embroiled in a dangerous world of war and politics as the Aztecs and Spanish clash for power and dominance.
