«Las lágrimas del sol» is the historical adventure novel for young readers by José María Merino, published by Santillana Educación in paperback (216 pages, in Spanish).
Miguel Villacé Yólotl, son of a Spanish conquistador and a Mexican Indian woman, accompanies his godfather on a journey through the Andes without imagining the hardships that await him. The story, set during the wars between Diego de Almagro and Francisco de Pizarro, brings the reader closer to Inca culture as Miguel searches for the treasure of the sovereign Atahualpa.
This work is the final installment of the American Trilogy begun with «El oro de los sueños» and «La tierra del tiempo perdido», within the Red Series of Alfaguara Juvenil.
Recommended for young readers aged 14 and over who enjoy historical fiction and adventure novels set in colonial America.
