À propos de cet audio

 Bloomsbury presents Secret of the Moon Conch by David Bowles and Guadalupe Garcia McCall, read by Ana Osorio and Johnny Rey Diaz.

Award-winning authors David Bowles and Guadalupe García McCall join forces to craft a sweeping fantasy romance about falling in love despite all odds.

In modern-day Mexico, Sitlali is all alone after the death of her beloved abuela. Targeted by a dangerous gang member, she flees to the United States to find her father. The night before her journey, she finds an ancient conch shell on the beach and takes it with her as a memento of home.

In 1521, Calizto is trapped in the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan, which is besieged by Spanish invaders. He has fought valiantly, but hope for his people is running out. Desperate to escape, he takes up his mother's sacred conch and sounds a plea to the gods.

The conch holds magic neither Sitlali nor Calizto understand, magic that allows them to communicate across centuries—and find comfort in each other as they fight to survive. With each conversation, they fall deeper in love, and as the moon waxes, they become more present to each other. But as danger threatens at every turn, will they ever find a way to truly be together?©2023 David Bowles and Guadalupe García McCall (P)2023 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Historique Magique Romance Science-fiction et fantasy Fantastique Fiction Mexique Amérique Latine

I really loved how both narrators approached and executed this story, it really increased my enjoyment.

I adore stories that meld history, mythology, and contemporary issues and that was done really well here. It was hard not to fall for Sitlali and Calixto as their bond grew and loved blossomed. Even as we got into the darker aspects of colonisation and racism, the strength and hope that both of our characters had made this read even more enjoyable.
