In 1532, Francisco Pizarro and his men venture into the Andes, marking the beginning of the conquest of the world with the fall of the Inca Empire. Éric Vuillard narrates this epic and romantic adventure, where mercenaries seek fortune and glory, while a world collapses. The story reveals how this dazzling and brutal epic opens a tragedy in which God, gold, and gunpowder play crucial roles.
