El libro del fin del mundo

"Year of the Lord of 1327. My name is Fadrique Ramiro, from the family of the chandlers of Barbastro. As there are many twists and turns that life gives to the wheel of Fortune, I ended up studying in Bologna and becoming a librarian of the University of Paris, where I spent my days among books and manuscripts, until the rector entrusted me with a mission that many others had rejected before me: to lead the crossing of the Dark Sea to find out its length and to describe in a book everything what we find." This is how this novel begins in which José Antonio Fortea, with great mastery, has gotten into the skin of an ancient medieval chronicler to recreate the preparations and the execution of an expedition in which fifteen sailors embarked and six returned after a hundred days of dangers, storms and dead calm, by the unknown ocean.
