Enrique 1521

By Jamil Ahmed

BEFORE MAGELLAN, BEFORE THE PHILIPPINES, THERE WAS ENRIQUE.

Sold into slavery. Gifted with many tongues. Witness to history.

In 1511, a boy named Enrique was taken from Malacca and forced into servitude. A decade later, he would find himself sailing across oceans as the personal interpreter of Ferdinand Magellan, facing storms, mutinies, native kingdoms-and the first global voyage in history.

But when Magellan falls at the Battle of Mactan, Enrique is left behind in the islands, surrounded by betrayal, rebellion, and a choice that will define his legacy.

Based on historical chronicles and reimagined through Enrique's eyes, this novel reveals the forgotten voice of the first person to circumnavigate the globe-not a European conqueror, but a brown-skinned slave who spoke the language of islands and empires.

"Enrique 1521" is a sweeping historical epic of discovery, faith, resistance, and survival. A powerful story of a man caught between two worlds-Europe and Asia, servitude and freedom, silence and truth.
