PARA CONQUISTAR LA CORONA, HAY QUE CAMBIAR LAS REGLAS DEL JUEGO.

Año 1468. Castilla se encuentra en un momento crucial de su historia. Alfonso de Trastámara ha muerto en sospechosas circunstancias y Enrique IV se alza como rey obligando a su hermanastra Isabel, la única que podría oponerse a sus planes, a firmar la paz. Ella acepta, pues está destinada a convertirse en Isabel la Católica y sabe que las grandes partidas no se ganan en el primer movimiento.

Mientras los asuntos de la Corte tienen al reino en vilo, el misterioso asesinato de un noble une fortuitamente a Gadea, una joven apasionada del ajedrez que esconde un oscuro pasado, y a Ruy, un cronista amante de la Historia y los libros. La peligrosa carrera contrarreloj de ambos para descubrir al culpable se entrelaza con las conspiraciones y las guerras de la Corte de Isabel, quien durante su mandato supo moverse como una maestra en el tablero y transformó para siempre la figura de la reina en el ajedrez.

Luis Zueco firma su novela más ambiciosa, llena de emoción e intriga, y nos sumerge en la Corte de Isabel I de Castilla, cuando la figura de la reina, tanto en el juego como en la Historia, se convirtió por primera vez en la más poderosa.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

TO CONQUER THE CROWN, YOU MUST CHANGE THE RULES OF THE GAME.

The year: 1468. It is a pivotal moment in the history of Castille. Alfonso of Trastámara has died under suspicious circumstances and Henry IV rises as king, forcing his stepsister Isabella--the only one who could oppose his plans--to make peace. She accepts, since she is destined to become Isabella the Catholic and knows that great matches are not won on the first move.

While court affairs keep the realm on edge, the mysterious murder of a nobleman fortuitously brings together Gadea--a young woman with a passion for chess harboring a dark past--and Ruy, a chronicler who loves books and history. Their dangerous race against the clock to find the culprit intersects with the conspiracies and wars within Isabella's court, a woman who knew how to move masterfully across the board during her rule, forever transforming the figure of the queen in chess.

Luis Zueco delivers his most ambitious novel yet. Full of intrigue and excitement, the author immerses us in the court of Isabella I of Castille at a time when the figure of the queen--as much in the game as in history--first became the most powerful of all.

Healthy, Effective, and great when mixed with Splenda and Koolaid mix. The best of many options I've tried.
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.46 Pound (Pack of 1)
I've sampled a few different varieties of fiber supplements, including both Benefiber and off-brands, and I found that Metamucil provided the most fiber in the least offensive beverage. Compared to the other brands, this stuff is smoother textured, and goes down easier, as a sort of happy medium between the grittier supplements and the thicker ones. What about effectiveness? I have apocalyptic IBS, and since starting to take this stuff regularly (one giant glass every morning and evening), my BMs have been much more regular, and more manageable. Flare-ups happen less, and it even seems to do a decent job when taken with meals of cutting the hit to my stomach and gut. I tend to take more than the recommended amount, with an even larger serving of water, as I feel like it helps me stay hydrated and full throughout the day. I started taking the classic orange Metamucil, but although I really liked the superior flavor (rather like Orange Tang) it packed several times more sugar in each serving than fiber, so while it was great for digestive health, the overall health impact was too negative. I also sampled the sugar-free berry flavors, but found that, although it was ostensibly healthier, the flavor wasn't great, and in addition it suffered from the aspartame aftertaste and further effects (Aspartame gives me headaches). So this was a dilemma for me. What to do? I actually wrote to Metamucil about it, and they recommended this product. The downside is that it comes with absolutely no flavor, so you need to provide your own in order to mask the texture (I wouldn't dream of trying to mix this in plain water--yuck!) The upside is they pack 100+ servings into a container, and you really are free to blend it into whatever suits your fancy. Obviously if you mix it with something like orange juice, then you're already negating the benefits of this stuff over the sugary orange flavor, but I've personally found a much better way. I like to mix this stuff with Kool-aid mix and Splenda (Sucralose) sweetener. I buy a ton of Splenda and kool-aid as it mixes up tasting sweet, like sugar, but without the calories or aftertaste. You can dump a spoonful of this stuff into a glass of splenda-koolaid, or just dump 8 servings worth of this stuff in with a packet of koolaid powder and a cup of splenda, and then just mix it up and spoon it into water as needed. Better tasting, sugar-free and packed with good useful fiber. EDIT: I wish I could subscribe to this stuff. Price of splenda has gone up, but I've figured out thatyou can just dump 7 packets of koolaid mix and 7 dashes of sucralose into a container of this and shake it up.

#1 for #2's
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.46 Pound (Pack of 1)
I like the lack of sweeteners and flavor. I just want the stuff that helps me poop. There is some citric acid in it (no idea why) which gives it a mildly acidic taste. Other than that, it does the trick.

Good Stuff
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.46 Pound (Pack of 1)
If you need more fiber in your diet, you need this. The price is right, it works very well and keeps me regular. I use this instead of the gummies or capsules. That's because you MUST put in in fluid, and hydration is SO important when using a psyllium product as it causes water to be absorbed very quickly once it is ingested, and you don't want to dehydrate! Mixes very well in water and has little to no taste whatsoever. Stay regular, stay hydrated and stay well.

Works well, but is now too expensive...
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.46 Pound (Pack of 1)
The "No added sweeteners" has been my go-to version of Metamucil, but I'm giving it 4 stars and moving on to another brand as the price is over $35 which is too much imo...

I like the mildly tart taste of this unflavored, unsweetened drink made up with water.
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.46 Pound (Pack of 1)
I like the mildly tart taste of this unflavored, unsweetened drink made up with water. The texture doesn't bother me, with stirring right from the beginning of adding the water, there is no clumping. After 10 days there is no effect on my bowels which were regular previously anyway. My doctor wanted me to use this although I already have a high fiber diet.
