"Cre�ble y fascinante... tan maravillosamente estructurada que las �ltimas sesenta p�ginas se detonan como un cordel de fuegos artificiales." - The Washington Post En el siglo XIV, la ciudad de Barcelona se encuentra en su momento de mayor prosperidad. Ha crecido hacia la Ribera, el humilde barrio de los pescadores, cuyos habitantes deciden construir, con el dinero de unos y el esfuerzo de otros, el mayor templo mariano jam�s conocido: Santa Mar�a del Mar. Una construcci�n que es paralela a la azarosa historia de Arnau, un siervo de la tierra que huye de los abusos de su se�or feudal y se refugia en Barcelona, donde se convierte en ciudadano y, con ello, en hombre libre. El joven Arnau trabaja como palafrenero, estibador, soldado y cambista. Una vida extenuante, siempre al amparo de la Catedral del Mar, que le iba a llevar de la miseria del fugitivo a la nobleza y la riqueza. Pero con esta posici�n privilegiada tambi�n le llega la envidia de sus pares, que urden una s�rdida conjura que pone su vida en manos de la Inquisici�n... La catedral del mar es una trama en la que se entrecruzan lealtad y venganza, traici�n y amor, guerra y peste, en un mundo marcado por la intolerancia religiosa, la ambici�n material y la segregaci�n social. Todo ello convierte a esta obra no s�lo en una novela absorbente, sino tambi�n en la m�s fascinante y ambiciosa recreaci�n de las luces y sombras de la �poca feudal.

La Catedral del Mar by I. Falcones is an excellent period novel. It is tale telling at its best. It , again, is a well documented piece of history written in a non- tyring style.
