In an imaginary 17th-century Europe, Don Lope de Villalobos y Sangrin, a fiery Spanish wolf, and Armand Raynal de Maupertuis, a refined French fox, live a life of adventure, duels, and unlikely expeditions. Their search for a mysterious treasure takes them far beyond familiar roads, among pirates, scholars, nobles, strange creatures, and unexpected worlds. Blending swashbuckling adventure, comedy, poetry, and literary references, their journey relies as much on their friendship as on their taste for flair, danger, and extravagant situations.
