Beschreibung
Set during the major conflict between the Inca Empire and Spanish explorers, Brave Son is a powerful middle grade historical novel for readers ages 8-14 that brings ancient Peru vividly to life. Manco and his best friend Amaru live in the coastal village of Tumbez, raised in the traditions, values and laws of the Inca civilization. Their lives are shaped by loyalty, hard work and dreams of becoming warriors-until the arrival of Francisco Pizarro and his men changes everything. When Amaru is taken by the Spaniards to serve as an interpreter, Manco must face loss, fear, and the collapse of the world he knows. When the Spaniards force both boys to guide them across the treacherous Andes Mountains to meet the Inca King, they witness the devastating impact of conquest on their people. Faced with forces beyond their control, the boys struggle with questions of identity, loyalty and moral choices as their paths diverge. Manco must learn that true bravery is not found in weapons or power, but in conscience, compassion and standing up for what is right.
