The Tartessian Crown (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798655656260)

Julius Aeolius is a fourteen-year-old boy who lives with his grandfather Lucius in Cesaraugusta, present-day Zaragoza, in the days of the Visigoth king Theodoric. They start a long journey, for Lucius is obsessed with finding the Tartessian crown. According to legend, whoever owns the crown will be king of all Hispania. But who is the mysterious goth who insists on going with them? What is Lucius hiding, who seems to know more than he says? Will Julius win the love of Dido, the orphan girl who barely speaks, but who knows how to get them out of all their troubles? In this journey through the most important cities and islands of the Mediterranean (Tarraco, Carthage, Malta, Rome...), the protagonist will face not just many adventures, but also an internal journey towards his own maturity. Manuel Alfonseca has published more than 50 books, including 32 novels of different genres: historical, fantasy, science fiction, mystery and adventure. In 1988 he won the Lazarillo Prize, and in 2012 he was awarded with this book the fourth edition of the La Brújula de Valores Prize.
