The Virgin of the Sun is a novel written by H. Rider Haggard, first published in 1922. The story is set in Peru during the Spanish conquest and follows the adventures of Leonard Outram, an Englishman who travels to South America in search of his missing brother. Along the way, he meets the beautiful and mysterious Ysabel, who is the last remaining descendant of the Inca royal family. Together, they embark on a dangerous journey to find the lost city of the Incas and uncover the secrets of the ancient civilization. Along the way, they encounter treacherous enemies, including the evil priest Huascar, who seeks to use Ysabel's royal blood to gain power. As they navigate through the treacherous terrain of the Andes Mountains, Leonard and Ysabel must rely on their wits and courage to survive and uncover the truth about the Virgin of the Sun. This novel is a thrilling adventure story full of action, romance, and mystery. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and culture of the Inca civilization and the impact of European colonization on South America.I, Hubert of Hastings, write this in the land of Tavantinsuyu, far from England, where I was born, whither I shall never more return, being a wanderer as the rune upon the sword of my ancestor, Thorgrimmer, foretold that I should be, which sword my mother gave me on the day of the burning of Hastings by the French. I write it with a pen that I have shaped from a wing feather of the great eagle.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
