Overview
1350. Los grandes reinados empiezan con una corona ensangrentada.
Cuando Alfonso XI, rey de Castilla y León, muere a causa de la peste negra durante el asedio a Gibraltar, el reino queda huérfano, con las fronteras amenazadas y las cosechas devastadas. Será entonces cuando su hijo Pedro, un joven de quince años con gran sed de poder, que ha vivido apartado y marginado de la corte, se coronará rey.
Empujado por las ansias de venganza de su madre, María de Portugal, y amenazado por la vil mirada de su hermano bastardo, Enrique de Trastámara, Pedro I provocará una oleada de violencia, odio y masacres que determinarían el destino de los reinos de Castilla y León, Portugal y Granada y de la Corona de Aragón. Su reinado continuaría las traiciones, las alianzas y las guerras desatadas por la envidia, así como los amores prohibidos, el sexo y los intereses ocultos que traspasaron los muros de palacio y marcaron para siempre esta época como una de las más sangrientas de nuestra historia.
Corona de sangre es la segunda entrega de la bilogía que comenzó con Matar al rey. Ambas novelas narran los sucesos acontecidos en el siglo XIV, el más cruel y violento de la historia de España, y que culmina con su último – y más controvertido– rey: Pedro I de Castilla.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
1350. Great reigns begin with a bloody crown.
When Alfonso XI, king of Castile and Leon, dies from the Black Death during the siege of Gibraltar, his kingdom is left orphaned, with threatened borders and devastated crops. But then his son Peter, a fifteen-year-old with a great thirst for power, who has lived separated and marginalized from the court, will be crowned king.
Pushed by the desire for revenge of his mother, Maria of Portugal, and threatened by the vile look of his bastard brother, Henry of Trastámara, Peter I will cause a wave of violence, hatred, and massacres that would determine the destiny of the kingdoms of Castile and Leon, Portugal and Granada and the Crown of Aragon. His reign would continue the betrayals, the alliances and the wars unleashed by envy, as well as the forbidden loves, sex, and hidden interests that crossed the palace walls and forever marked this time as one of the bloodiest in the history of Spain.
Blood Crown is the second book of the dilogy that began with To Kill the King. Both novels narrate the events that occurred in the fourteenth century, the cruelest and most violent in the history of Spain, and which culminated in its last and most controversial king: Peter I of Castile.
