In 'The Queen's Journey', Ángeles de Irisarri transports us to Spain in the year 1000, a time when small Christian kingdoms coexisted with the splendor of the Caliphate of Córdoba. Queen Toda of Navarre asks her nephew Abderramán III for a wise man to treat the obesity of her grandson, King Sancho the Fat. The caliph's condition is that the cure be carried out in Córdoba, giving rise to a unique adventure full of vicissitudes and cultural encounters. This rigorously documented historical novel offers a rich and entertaining vision of daily life and intercultural relations in the medieval Iberian Peninsula.
