His mother and prior ruler, Sak Kuk, has selected his wife, the next queen. Lalak is a shy and homely young woman from a nearby city who relates better to animals than people. She is chosen as Pakals wife because of her pristine lineage to Baakal dynasty founders ? but also because she is no beauty.</p><p>Arriving at Lakam Ha, she is overwhelmed by its sophisticated, complex society and expectations of the royal court. Her mother-in-law, Sak Kuk, is critical and hostile, resenting any intrusion between herself and her son. She chose Lalak to avoid being displaced in Pakals affections, and does everything she can to keep it this way. The official name she confers on Lalak exposes her view of the girl as a breeder of future rulers: Tzaabku Ahau, the Accumulator of Lords who sets the royal succession.</p><p>Lalak struggles to learn her new role and prove her worth, facing challenges in her relationship with Pakal, for he is enamored of a beautiful woman banished from Lakam Ha by his mother. Pakals esthetic tastes and love of beauty affect his view of his homely wife. Lalak, however, is fated to play a pivotal role in Pakals mission to restore the spiritual portal to the Triad Gods that was destroyed in a devastating attack by archenemy Kan. Through learning sexual alchemy, Lalak brings the immense creative force of sacred union to rebuild the portal, but first Pakal must come to view his wife in a new light.</p><p>In modern times, ten years after the discovery of the Red Queens tomb, archeologist Francesca is studying new research about this mysterious royal woman in Mérida, Mexico. She teams up with British linguist Charlie to decipher an ancient manuscript left by her deceased grandmother. It provides clues about her grandmothers secrets that propel them into exploring her family history in a remote Maya village.</p>...2001292The Mayan Red Queen178205https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-mayan-red-queen/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1258556/dbce135c-c6cb-4acc-997a-6fa7eeb2b7cc.jpg?v=638337725097500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20159781613398463_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_<p>The ancient Maya city of Lakam Ha has a new, young ruler, Kinich Janaab Pakal.
