Los caballeros de Salomón (The Templar Legacy) » (Spanish-language Edition)

Steve Berry first burst on the scene in 2003 and 2004 with The Amber Room and The Romanov Prophecy, a pair of twisty, adrenaline-laced thrillers with intriguing historical mysteries at their heart. Since then, Berry's novels have gone on to gather international momentum, earning spots on The New York Times, USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and BookSense bestseller lists.

Although his undergraduate degree was in political science and he actively practiced law for 29 years, it was his interest in history that led to Steve to writing international suspense thrillers. Simply put, the books he liked to read became the books he liked to write. He continues to wrap his novels in fascinating secrets, conspiracies, and mysteries from the past (religious prophecy, ancient manuscripts, lost treasure, Vatican intrigue, etc.), concocting dandy plots his readers love to unravel.

Berry credits the nuns who taught him in Catholic school with instilling the discipline needed both to craft a novel and to find a publisher. Indeed, he claims to be the poster child for stick-to-itiveness: It took him 12 years and 85 rejections to finally sell a manuscript to Ballantine Books. Clearly, his perseverance has paid off. Today, his novels appear in 50 countries and 37 languages worldwide. He lives in the historic city of St. Augustine, Florida. He and his wife, Elizabeth, have founded History Matters, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving our heritage. To learn more about Steve and the foundation, visit steveberry.org .

La poderosa orden medieval de los templarios poseía un conocimiento secreto que amenazaba los cimientos de la Iglesia y cuya revelación podría haber cambiado el rumbo de la Historia. Condenados por herejía, fueron aniquilados en el siglo XIV, y los rastros de su colosal saber se perdieron en los abismos de la Historia. Hasta hoy. Cotton Malone, un ex agente secreto del gobierno americano, se ve envuelto en una persecución contrarreloj por descifrar ese enigma que los templarios codificaron. Su búsqueda pone al descubierto una peligrosa conspiración religiosa capaz de cambiar el destino de la humanidad y poner en entredicho la veracidad de los santos Evangelios. Los caballeros de Salomón ha vendido un millón y medio de ejemplares en Estados Unidos, donde ha permanecido tres meses en las listas de los libros más vendidos del New York Times, convirtiéndose en un fenómeno editorial en treinta y ocho países. Las novelas de Steve Barry son alabadas por escritores como Dan Brown, autor de El código Da Vinci. En sus manos, intriga y acción se combinan en el mejor y más ambicioso thriller sobre templarios escrito hasta la fecha.
