The Prince & The Coyote

Mexico. 1418.

Meet Prince Acolmiztli. Puma of the Acolhua People. Heir to his father’s throne. Half Acolhuan, half Mexica. Singer. Warrior. Poet. Sixteen years old.

And now, betrayed. A palace plot, placed by the deadly Tepaneca Empire, kills his mother and siblings, puts his father’s army into retreat, and sends Prince Acolmiztli into a treacherous exile. Battling hunger, snow-swept mountains, and the machinations of the city-states all around him, Prince Acolmiztli vows revenge.

It will take years, but he will return to seek justice. And he’ll do it with a new name:

Nezahualcoyotl. Fasting Coyote. One of the most legendary figures in history.

From the award-winning team of David Bowles and Amanda Mijangos comes a heart-pounding historical epic that is Gladiator meets the Song of Achilles—The Count of Monte Cristo set in pre-Columbian Mexico. The Prince & The Coyotebrings to life one of Mexico’s most treasured heroes—Nezahualcoyotl—in a story that will thrill readers far and wide.
