I enjoyed very much watching this Netflix series. The characters were great and the directing too. So realistic, It was like I was living at that period of Spain's past.
Haven't read the novel and I can't understand these few 1/10 reviews.

Engaging story of love, passion, betrayal, family values, and triumph amid adversity at an important segment of Spanish history. The story of Hugo Llor brings us to mid-14th century to early 15th century at a time of
pogroms, corsairs, regnal successions when the influence of nobles on the royal court was considerable and when Jews were better off than other residents of Barcelona causing resentment among them.
It's mainly the story of Hugo Llor and Bernat Estanyol, the heir of Arnau Estanyol, who is the chief character in "Cathedral of the Sea," the prequel of this series by the same author, Ildefonso Falcones.
The avid student of European history will appreciate this story set against a nascent Spain when it's starting to flex its colonial muscle. He will be introduced to Spanish kings of those times like Peter of Castile and Alfonso.
This historical backdrop heightens the human drama as the viewer keenly watches the main characters tell their stories as they are caught up in events of that period.
The main actors are convincing especially Yon Gonzales and David Solans as the adult and the young Hugo Llor, Rodolfo Sancho as the adult Bernat Estanyol, Mercedes Leon as Barsha and Aria Belmar as Merce.
As this is a period film, the film ensures that the costumes and the settings are authentic. Quite picturesque are views of the vineyards under a bright sun.
Beside being a historical film, this one drives home important life lessons. Watch it. It's binge-worthy.

It's about the history we've lived centuries ago, and it has touched me as a woman. Amazing actors, deep emotions, and the feeling of being a victim of unfairness left me so emotional. I am grateful to all the staff who has worked on this awesome series.
THIS appears to be a continuation of CATHEDRAL BY YHE SEA (2017). Given the timeline each series covers I suspect there's a series I'm unaware of? I can't find anything online or on Netflix to confirm or deny a missing a series.
Heirs to Land is really good. Seemed to drag in places towards the end but overall...definitely worth a watch.

What a wonderful series. The costumes, the sceneries, the actors, the educational story, all of it was simply great done and to experience. It brought me back and I could completely disconnect and enjoy each episode. See it and you won't regret. Congrats to the director and all the staff.
Hope to see more of this genre. It merits 9/10.
