THE CELTIBERIAN WARS – NOVELS
BOOK: INDOMITUS
For centuries the gods have guarded the people of Hispania, but it is now, in the greatest time of need, that a sword is given to the heir of ancient lineage.
It is time for the different peoples of Hispania to unite against a terrible and bloody invader, it is time for one man to lead them to victory and for his legend to be forged. The sons of Rome will fear to speak his name and for generations, to speak it means freedom.
This is a story of wars and betrayals, of unbribable loyalties and impossible love stories.
During the Celtiberian Wars, the warlike confrontations that took place throughout the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC between the Roman Republic and the different Celtiberian peoples that inhabited the Iberian Peninsula provoked an amalgam of skirmishes, confrontations and epic deeds.
Viriato is recorded in Roman sources as the leader of the Lusitanian tribe, who fought against Roman expansion into Hispania in the mid-2nd century BC in the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula.
This is the story of resistance, of a family, of the gods, of their magic and of a mythical sword. This is the story of Indomitus.

MEDIEVAL – NOVELS
BOOK: THE LEGEND OF THE ENCHANTED BLACKBERRY
The Legend of the Enchanted Moor is a gripping historical drama set at the height of the Reconquest.
After the conquest of the Sierra de Altomira, in the Lower Alcarria, the Castilian armies set out on a crusade to guarantee the safeguarding of the Fortress of Zorita, a new place conquered from the infidel enemy.
This frontier territory between Muslim and Christian Spain was commanded by the knight Don Alvar Fáñez, former lieutenant of El Cid, and soon became the axis of the war between the Emir of the city of Iuliana and the knights of the Castilian crusade. Between jealousies, duels and intrigues, a young knight named Rodrigo will meet the Emir’s daughter, unleashing suspicions and betrayals that will precipitate the events towards an uncertain end, sealed by a forbidden love.
“When Don Alfonso VI, King of Castile, León and Galicia by the grace of God, Our Lord, and Don Alvar Fáñez de Minaya, captain of the Castilian armies advanced in the fortress of Zorita, a frontier land, a story took place in those places that I am pleased to relate to you; for there were no lovers, nor pleas, nor hardships under the sun of Castile that have as much merit to be narrated and remembered as the events that I will now tell you about deserve to be.
You should know that this was a time of wars and merciless struggles, when the Castilian killed the Moor and the Moor killed the Castilian”.
