The Prince & the Coyote

De: David Bowles, Amanda Mijangos - illustrator

Narrado por: Johnny Rey Diaz

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 listeners far and wide.
