Los Banquetes Para El Gran Rey [Spanish]

By José María Beneyto

A Spanish adventurer in sixteenth-century China... In the resplendent halls of the Forbidden City, where banquets are a spectacle and whispers can change the destiny of the empire, an outsider, Juan Orozco, a Spanish soldier and explorer, arrives at the court of the Son of Heaven after years of adventures and loves in the South China seas. On his way he will meet Flor de Peonía, a concubine of enigmatic beauty and indomitable will who has learned to survive in a kingdom of indecipherable rules, palace intrigues, spies and hidden enemies. As the Ming Empire crumbles, Orozco will receive a secret mission and discover that the greatest danger is not always a sword... With exquisite prose and a vibrant narrative pulse, José María Beneyto brings the fascinating China of the 16th century to life in this story full of exoticism and adventure.
