Sinopsis

Traducción: Kathia Iblis

Eldir, prince of the Northern Lowlands, was plucked from his mother’s arms being a small boy to be educated as the most fearsome warrior, destined to end the scourge of endless war. Raised by a whip and a sword, he never gave up his own self or his ideals. Possessed by a magic he does not understand, he commits a war crime so atrocious that he cannot forgive himself. His greatest desire: to exile himself to a place so distant that no one could have felt the scourge of his acts.
The only possible place for him is very far away, in time and space, the Argentinian Patagonia.
Wounded, lonely, confused … The brothers Gabriela and Ignacio Núñez are his only means of expiation and redemption. Together they will undertake not only a journey into the bowels of the earth seeking to understand the magnitude of a mystery that binds them, but will also travel a path of self-discovery in which the reader will become more than a witness. He will become part of it, discovering vital energy able to jump from the pages of the book, revealing his strengths, his fears, until he feels himself… a hero.

Biografía de la autora

Escritora, profesora en Letras (U.N.L.P.) y productora de radio. El Fantástico es su especialidad y ha experimentado todas sus variantes, decidiéndose en sus novelas por el Realismo-Fantástico arraigado, con preferencia, en la Patagonia Argentina. La combinación de este ámbito de naturaleza exuberante con otros diametralmente diferentes o imaginarios es una de sus características esenciales. Sus personajes (que cuentan sus vivencias de manera visceral) siempre son guerreros, héroes resilientes (pero sin dejar de ser personas comunes) en el sentido de que afrontan las atrocidades que la vida les plantea con un coraje que resurge de sus propios temores, conformando una serie de metáforas y alegorías que el lector encuentra catárticas.
