Ashes of the Feathered Throne

By Samuel DenHartog

Shipwrecked off the coast of the New World, young Isobel Greystoke is thrust into a land brimming with wonder, danger, and ancient power. Far from the quiet English life she once knew, she is captured by Maya warriors and dragged into the heart of a civilization unlike anything she has ever imagined. But Isobel is quick-witted and unyielding. She earns her captors' respect, learns their tongue, and begins to understand a culture teetering on the edge of monumental change.

When she crosses paths with the advancing Spanish under Hern n Cort s, Isobel's fate takes another sharp turn. Fluent in native languages and fearless in the face of battle, she becomes an unlikely intermediary between empires. Pulled into the conquest of the Aztec world, she witnesses both brilliance and brutality on all sides-Aztec nobility, Spanish ambition, and the quiet despair of those caught between. Her choices will carry weight not only for herself but for the people whose fates she now shares.

As cities burn and thrones fall, Isobel must navigate shifting allegiances, ancient gods, and the cold calculations of conquest. Her strength lies not in swordplay, but in her loyalty, her keen mind, and her refusal to become just another pawn in someone else's war. Set against the sweeping backdrop of the Spanish invasion of Mexico, this is the story of one woman's survival, courage, and the high price of empire.
