«De tu vientre nace un río caudaloso, crece, se bifurca y alimenta innumerables arroyos, para verter luego sus aguas en el gran océano, donde alcanzan la catarata y se adentran en ella, pero no desaparecen. Por eso tu nombre ha de ser Huma, que significa la que mana .

En una noche sin luna, a principios del siglo VIII, nace en el Reino de Asturias Huma, hija y única heredera de la sacerdotisa del castro de Coaña, marcada por una profecía y una maldición.

Al mismo tiempo, en Recópolis, ocupada por los musulmanes, el joven Ickila sueña con emigrar al norte y unirse a los cristianos en su lucha contra los sarracenos que dominan casi toda la península. Por eso, cuando tras una reyerta se enfrenta al destierro, decide buscar fortuna al otro lado de las montañas, donde el príncipe Alfonso acaudilla un ejército de astures, cántabros y godos empañados en resistir sin someterse ni pagar tributos.

El destino teje sus hilos para unir a Huma e Ickila, al pueblo visigodo con el astur, en dos historias entrelazadas que realmente forman una sola.

Isabel San Sebastián crea en Astur una crónica arrebatadora en la que historia y leyenda transportan al lector al corazón de una epopeya apasionante.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"From your womb a mighty river is born. It branches off, feeding innumerable streams. Its waters pour into the great ocean, where they reach the waterfall but do not disappear. That is why your name must be Huma, which means the one that flows .

On a moonless night, early in the 8th century, Huma was born in the Kingdom of Asturias. The daughter and sole heiress of the priestess of the Coaña fort, she is marked by a prophecy and a curse.

At the same time, in occupied Recópolis, the young Ickila dreams of going north and joining the Christians in their fight against the Saracens, who have invaded almost the entire peninsula. Exiled after a brawl, he decides to seek his fortune on the other side of the mountains, where Prince Alfonso leads an army of Asturians, Cantabrians, and Goths who are determined to resist without submitting or paying tribute.

Fate weaves its threads to unite Huma and Ickila, the Visigothic peoples and the Asturian, in two intertwined stories that are really one.

With Astur, Isabel San Sebastián creates a captivating chronicle in which history and legend bring the reader to the heart of an exciting epic.
