The year is 1500s. The island of Borikén breathes with ancient power — and Spain has just arrived.
Leonardo is a young Spaniard raised for war and rank, sent to this island with dreams of glory. But Borikén is nothing like the maps promised. It is alive. It is watching. And it does not yield easily to those who come to conquer it.
Torn between loyalty to the Spanish crown and the spiritual legacy of a people he was taught to fear, Leonardo is dragged into a conflict where steel meets stone, and belief can be as deadly as any blade. As ancient Taíno deities stir and alliances fracture, he must face a question no one prepared him for: Who are you, when everything you were told is a lie?
Blending historical fiction with Caribbean myth and Taíno spirituality, The Tale of Borikén launches an epic saga of identity, resistance, and rebirth — rooted in the legends history tried to bury.
