About the Book

MKOMBO. SOBA DEL NORTE. Con la absurda muerte del Soba Mkemba IV, al atravesársele la espina de un "peixe" en la garganta, la tribu de los Malengo, la más poderosa del noroeste de Angola se ve sumergida en una cruenta y sangrienta guerra por la sucesión. Todo lo que se opone o pueda suponer un peligro para la coronación del usurpador Ekeba debe ser barrido y borrado con sangre. Es así que la exótica Mkamba, "la del cuello de jirafa", consorte principal del Soba y madre del pequeño Mkombo, a todas vistas príncipe heredero, debe huir y refugiarse en la selva, donde es ultimada salvajemente por los feroces guerreros de la tribu. La malograda reina antes de morir logra esconder a su hijo, que salva la vida milagrosamente de sus perseguidores. Pero ahora deberá enfrentar solo los múltiples y mortales peligros que esconde la intrincada jungla de la floresta africana.Solo hay una opción para que el pequeño príncipe sobreviva y es la de aliarse y convivir con una manada de cercopitecos, cuya reina madre mona lo acoge maternalmente, pensando en su edad senil y en su avanzada ceguera de que se trata de uno más de los suyos.Entre los simios, ahora sus "hermanastros", logrará sobrevivir a una muerte segura y aprenderá de éstos, su lenguaje, sus costumbres y alimentarse como ellos, y sobre todo eludir la muerte ante sus más feroces enemigos: las hienas, los leopardos, las águilas y sobre todo sus parientes cercanos: los chimpancés carnívoros y asesinos, que con más inteligencia que el resto de los animales, emplea métodos de caza cooperativos y organizados con óptimos resultados para capturar y devorar a sus pequeños compañeros. Contra ellos, al final tendrá que combatir y creará armas para enfrentarlos y demostrarles que él es aun más fuerte e inteligente. Pero aun queda un enemigo más, el más peligroso, cruel y sanguinario de todos: el ser humano, que no solo caza simios para comer, sino también por placer y diversión.Al final también tendrá que vérsela con los humanos, ya no entre los simios, sino defendiendo sus derechos como Soba heredero de la tribu más grande y poderosa del noroeste y señor de las nueve tribus y sobas subordinados. Para ello contará con amigos europeos embelezados por el hechizo africano, y dispuestos a correr con él su misma suerte, también con sus "hermanastros" simios con los que se comunica y lo mantienen alerta e informado de los riesgos y peligros de la selva.La búsqueda desesperada y enfermiza del Soba por hallar una esposa parecida físicamente a su madre, muerta en condiciones dramáticas durante su niñez, lo llevará a aventurarse en las enigmáticas y desconocidas llanuras del Sur, acompañado de algunos de sus fieles seguidores, en medio de la guerra violenta y devastadora, para al final encontrar el amor esperado, pero no con alguien cuyo fenotipo responde a la imagen de su progenitora, sino con una mujer real entre las tribus de pastores de las extensas y secas sabanas australes. Aquel viaje, a todas luces incomprensible y absurdo, tendrá un alto precio para la paz y la estabilidad de la aldea, por lo que a su regreso tendrá que sofocar una revuelta ambiciosa y desmedida, que lo llevará a un enfrentamiento violento con los usurpadores, y la destrucción de gran parte de su obra de gobierno, cuidadosamente sedimentada bajo esfuerzos y sacrificios, aunque renacerá en él la necesidad de empezar de nuevo, reconstruirlo todo y continuar la búsqueda de un futuro mejor para su pueblo. Las aventuras de Mkombo, su odisea para sobrevivir en la jungla, ascender al poder y superar las arcaicas normas primitivas tribales de muchos siglos de existencia, con el fin de mejorar la vida de sus súbditos y llevar el progreso a su aldea, es de lo que trata la historia que abordamos. Enmarcada, además, en medio de una cruenta guerra civil que azota el país y en la frontera con el Congo, por donde penetran bandas de cazadores furtivos, de bandoleros asesinos y de ladro
