Un superbe roman d’aventures où se nouent d’étonnantes relations entre Juifs, Arabes et Chrétiens dans l’Espagne du XIIe siècle. Une saisissante fresque médiévale. At the beginning of the XIIth century, in the heart of Spain, the author shows the adversities of an Occitan knight, as poor as deprived of scruples, that takes the opportunity of the war against the Moors. He reaches his personal objectives, but not as he imagined!
Philippe Collas offers us an unconventional image of the Middle Ages through strong characters: the Norman bishop Guy Passerot, mystic and manipulator, the Spanish mercenary Ramon Guttierez, venal and cynical, the officer Djamel El Hafsun, ambitious and pervert, the Jewish prostitute Deborah, mysterious and terribly provocative.
The reader evolves in a striking and bitter picture of that period, and discovers a universe of machinations and traps, until the inevitable and surprising outcome.
Reconquista against Jihad: a description of interreligious conflicts and their hidden motivations, Philippe Collas signs a very modern novel on the motivations of ambition and revenge.
