Blood Moon

Shipwrecked in the Land of the Maya!

In the year 1511 the mysterious New World waited just beyond the navigator’s map. It was into these uncharted seas that Gonzalo Guerrero and a small group of survivors drifted. Starving and dehydrated, the Spanish explorers were quickly apprehended when they came ashore. Some were sacrificed. A few made a daring escape, only to be recaptured and taken to another town. The prisoners were divided and enslaved.

Gonzalo Guerrero picked corn for his new masters, not realizing that they were, in fact, the ancient Maya. As he labored under the hot Yucatan sun, he did not know that with his group of survivors came the first wave of disease that would rock the Mayan civilization to its core. He did not know that he would learn the language and eventually adopt the Mayan culture and religion. He had no idea that within a few years he would become a great Mayan warrior, refuse rescue, marry a Mayan princess, and lead the last remnants of the Mayan world against the invading Spanish.
