Montezuma's Daughter is an action & adventure novel by English author H. Rider Haggard. 

This time around Haggard takes us to exotic 16th century Anahuac - the Aztec name for Mexico. It has it all: a love story (or two), a quest for revenge, exotic people, riches and high seas adventure.

Montezuma’s Daughter is a moving adventure story narrated by Thomas Wingfield, an Englishman whose adventures include having his mother murdered, a brush with the Spanish Inquisition, shipwreck, and slavery.

Eventually, Thomas unwillingly joins a Spanish expedition to New Spain, and the novel tells the fictionalized story of the first interactions between the natives and European explorers. This includes a number of misunderstandings, prejudice on the part of the Spaniards, and ultimately open war.

During the course of the story, Thomas meets and marries the daughter of the native king (from whom the novel takes its title) and settles into life in Mexico.
