Summary
A young girl called Tozi stands at the bottom of a pyramid, waiting to be led to the top where her heart will be cut out....
Pepillo, a Spanish orphan who serves a sadistic Dominican friar, is aboard the Spanish fleet as it sails towards Mexico.... This is the epic story of the clash of two empires, two armies and two gods of war.
Five hundred desperate adventurers are about to pit themselves against the most brutal armies of the ancient Americas, armies hundreds of thousands strong. This is a war of gods and men.
Dark powers that work behind the scenes of history show their hand as the prophecy of the return of Quetzalcoatl is fulfilled with the arrival of Cortes. The Aztec ruler Moctezuma fights to maintain the demands of the war god Huitzilopochtli for human sacrifice. The Spanish Inquisition is planning an even greater blood-letting.
Caught up in the headlong collision between two gods of war are Tozi, Pepillo and the beautiful sex slave Malinal whose hatred of Moctezuma runs so deep she will sell out her own land and people to destroy him.

Simply amazing
I usual read fantasy and sci fi. If I do read historical fiction it tends to be Wilber Smith or James Clavell who I rate up there With Frank Herbert and Tolkien. This reminded me of a James Clavell novel. Great Characters well realised, each with believable motivation and a real sense of the time and place they find themselves in. I've got so many great sequels to buy, but I got the sequel to this straight away and my next credit will be the last book in the trilogy. I regret not finding this series sooner. I will probably add it to my small list of series I listen to again (and again and again).

confusing.
The story was absolutely brilliant , well written and I am eager for the next installment. The reading was perfect and Mr Edwards has a beautiful and alluring voice, I was very much drawn to his reading style and the timbre of his voice. Such a sexy voice and very tempting. Well written Mr Hancock, your previous books were excellent also and vastly entertaining.

Gripping
I have been pulled in to the world of the Spanish conquest of the Native South American Empire in the 1500s. Well written and also well read. Very interesting account with details of how it was done. Highly recommended, now on to book two of the series.

Just a great job on capturing small details from that time period and the whole book from start to finish is brilliant.
