About the Book

MARLEN SUYAPA BODDEN, The Wall Street Journal bestselling author of THE WEDDING GIFT, is back with ARROWS OF FIRE! ARROWS OF FIRE is "exceptionally entertaining" and "unreservedly recommended." Midwest Book Review It is October 1519 - and the Mexican empire is on the brink. Hernán Cortés leads an army of Spaniards and their native allies to Moctezoma's capital. Moctezoma believes the only way to save his empire is to heed the God of War and sacrifice Flower, a beautiful woman warrior, in exchange for protection from the invaders. But a different faction - the resistance - wants to overthrow Moctezoma and go to war against the invaders. The resistance has other plans for Flower - if they can only help her escape before Moctezoma offers her as a sacrifice. Will Flower make it out in time to join the resistance? Or will Moctezoma carry out a centuries-old practice of human sacrifice?

Review :
"A deftly crafted and inherently absorbing novel by a writer who has a genuine flair for reader engaging narrative storytelling, "Arrows of Fire" by Marlen Suyapa Bodden is "exceptionally entertaining" and "unreservedly recommended." Midwest Book Review Arrows of Fire "was a thrill to read and very educational. The facts are accurate. I recommend this book to all who are thinking of traveling to Mexico and all who are genuinely interested in learning more about the true history of America. Arrows of Fire is an exciting book." Shirley Willard, county historian appointed by the Indiana Historical Society. Arrows of Fire "is a satisfying read, filling in blanks in my knowledge of the Spanish conquest of the Aztec empire. It is also a disturbing read because it throws a harsh spotlight on the racist assumptions that allowed European explorers to justify their wholesale destruction of the indigenous populations of the lands they stole and then claimed for the various crowns that had underwritten the cost of the expeditions. The author is a gifted story teller, combining vivid detail with historic accuracy. She also has a knack for creating characters that I came to care about...." The White Rhino Report
