Peru, 1532. Francisco Pizarro draws a line in the sand. Twelve men step across it. They're going to conquer an empire of millions.
Sardina is one of them - young, hungry, and blind to the cost of what he's signed up for.
As the small band of conquistadors marches through the Andes toward the court of King Atahualpa, Sardina's discovery of gold seems to confirm their wildest dreams. But the Inca Empire is grander than any of them imagined, and taking it will require a treachery that haunts him long after the blood dries.
Then he meets Manco - a reluctant Inca king caught between resistance and survival. Through Manco, Sardina begins to see the conquest for what it is: not glory, but greed dressed in armor. Not destiny, but madness with a flag.
Set in the dense jungles and mountain passes of 1530s Peru, Brothers & Kings is the first book in the Conquistadors Trilogy - a historical epic told from both sides of the conquest. This is Sardina's story. It doesn't let him off the hook, and it won't let you look away.
The Conquistadors Trilogy spans the years 1527-1542 across Peru, the American Southwest, and La Florida. Each book follows a different Spanish expedition. Together, they form one soldier's reckoning with what empire costs.
