Description
Izta era la princesa más hermosa de la tierra y muchos pretendientes venían desde lejos para conquistarla. Aun siendo la hija del emperador, Izta no quería casarse con un hombre de poder y riqueza. En cambio, se enamoró de Popoca, un valiente guerrero que peleaba en el ejército de su padre. El emperador no quería que su hija se casara con un simple guerrero, por lo que le ofreció un trato: si el guerrero lograba derrotar a su enemgio, Garra de Jaguar, entonces el emperador les permitiría casarse. Pero Garra de Jaguar tenía un plan para frustrar al guerrero.-- Adapted from publisher description.
Description
"Award-winning author Duncan Tonatiuh reimagines one of Mexico's cherished legends. Princess Izta had many wealthy suitors but dismissed them all. When a mere warrior, Popoca, promised to be true to her and stay always by her side, Izta fell in love. The emperor promised Popoca if he could defeat their enemy Jaguar Claw, then Popoca and Izta could wed. When Popoca was near to defeating Jaguar Claw, his opponent sent a messenger to Izta saying Popoca was dead. Izta fell into a deep sleep and, upon his return, even Popoca could not wake her. As promised Popoca stayed by her side."-- Publisher description.
