Synopsis
A gem of alternate history by one of SF's brightest rising stars; a searing journey into a very different yet strangely familiar North America...
In anno domini 714, seven Catholic bishops fleeing the Muslim invasion of Spain set sail across the Western Ocean. There, in a new world, they founded seven legendary cities--and a legendary Christian empire.
Now, twelve centuries later, war rages across that new world: a culture of war, a clash of civilizations, as the armies of the Caliphate of al-Andalus invade a failed state become a terrorist safe haven, breeding ground for global reconquistadores.
Doctor-Lieutenant Chie Nakada is a physician with the Relief Ministry of the Regency of Japan. In the war of Muslims and Christians, Buddhist Japan is officially neutral. But when a mysterious weapon of mass destruction razes the Muslim--occupied city of Espirito Santo, Nakada is tasked to travel up the great river Acuamagna, seek out the messianic leader of the Christian resistance, and put a permanent end to that leader's apocalyptic delusions.
