This is a gripping historical novel that starts from a diplomatic episode that occurred between Abd al-Rahman III and Otto I. The German emperor's meeting with the caliph of Cordoba and promoter of the beautiful palatine city of Medina Azahara was intended to stop the Islamic state of Fraxinetum, which had become a stronghold of pirates against whose raids several expeditions were organized to expel them from the fortified village that served as a shelter in the middle of Christian dominions, from endangering naval trade across the Mediterranean. This fact, rigorously historical and conveyed succinctly by Ibd Khaldum, allows the authors to create a stimulating adventure, full of risks, to which characters such as the caliph himself, Juan de Gorze, Garamano, Hasday or Recemundo give life. And all this against the backdrop of the political, social, religious and cultural reality of 10th century Europe. A suggestive narration that excites the pleasure of reading and that is followed with growing interest until its denouement.
