The King's Fifth BSY467

US$12.95

In this deeply affecting novel Scott O’Dell envelops the reader in the heroic world of the conquistadors—a world that is at once somber and many-colored. Though they may have been ruthless, these steel-helmeted young men of Spain lived their lives on the very edge of eternity with style and uncommon courage.

十五岁的小绘图员桑多瓦尔随西班牙军队来到美洲新大陆，却懵懵懂懂中在茫茫大海上卷入叛变，被迫离开大船，在海上遭遇飓风、大浪、饥饿等重重磨难，差点丢掉性命。然而，这只是阴谋和冒险的开始。这一切，都是因为那一块神秘的土地、未知的国度——锡博拉。据说，锡博拉的七城都是黄金装饰，条条大街都由金子铺就，珍珠宝石如同海中细沙，当地的印第安人却对这一切弃如敝屣……锡博拉的金子城吸引着所有人——残酷的上校、贪婪的士兵、虔诚的牧师、天真的印第安少女……他们结伴前往梦一般的城池。然而，九死一生之后，当传说中的财富突然之间在眼前出现，每个人的命运都因为这一次冒险，发生了无法挽回的剧变……巨大的财富真的会带来最大的幸福吗？
