La saga de Los Confines Add a review

Saga of the Borderlands (Spanish: La Saga de los Confines) is a collection of three fantasy novels, written by Argentine writer Liliana Bodoc. The first book, The Days of the Deer, was published in 2000, the second one The Days of Shadow arrived in 2002 and the third and last one, The Days of Fire, hit the bookstores in 2004. This work takes form in the epic fantasy genre and it takes place in an imaginary world called The Fertile Lands (Tierras Fertiles). The main plot of the saga revolves around the Fertile Lands' people's struggle against the armies of evil Misaianes, from The Ancient Lands.

The whole trilogy functions as a reinterpretation of the "Conquista de América" ( the Conquest of Pre-Columbian America by the Spanish, Portuguese and other Europeans) and the consequences it brought to their native inhabitants, through the lens of Epic Fantasy, allowing for an ending different to the Historical one, as forces of Nature and Magic come into play.

An English Translation of The Days of the Deer was published in August 2013 by Atlantic Books.
