  • Overview

    Hubo un tiempo en el que la península ibérica estaba inmersa en guerras constantes. Fueron siglos de batallas célebres, valientes gestas que los juglares luego cantaron por tabernas y plazas. Pero hay una historia que siempre callaron, quizá porque nadie se atrevió entonces a contarla. La de un joven caballero llamado Diego.

    Diego no es un muchacho cualquiera, es el hijo del mayor héroe de la época. Su padre, Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, se ha esforzado por convertirlo en el mejor de sus capitanes. Algo que el chico persigue sin tregua a pesar de que la devoción filial que antes le profesaba ha ido desvaneciéndose ante la mirada inquieta de su madre, Jimena. En estos últimos años, el rencor ha hecho del Cid un hombre cruel, capaz de condenar a quienes más le aman. Y Diego, siempre dispuesto a servirle como lo haría un buen vasallo, tendrá que enfrentarse con la verdad sobre su padre y señor.

    Con un estilo poderoso y épico, Francisco Narla nos sumerge en el mítico medievo español a la vez que nos ofrece el soberbio perfil humano de unos personajes que forman parte de nuestro legado. Honor, venganza, redención y amor se entrecruzan en una deslumbrante novela histórica que es a la vez la más seductora de las leyendas.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    There was a time when the Iberian Peninsula was wracked by constant wars, with tales of glorious battles and brave feats celebrated in its taverns and plazas.  But one story was never told, perhaps because no one dared tell it. The story of a young knight named Diego.

    Diego is no ordinary boy: He is the son of the most celebrated hero of the times, Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, who aims to make his heir the greatest of his captains. Under the worried eyes of his mother, Jimena, Diego has devoted himself to this goal, despite his increasingly ambivalent feelings toward his father. Time and battle have turned El Cid into a cruel man, capable of hurting those who love him most. And now Diego, ever the good servant, must confront the truth about his lord and father.
     
    Francisco Narla’s powerful storytelling immerses us in the world of medieval Spain while offering an intimate profile of some of its most epic figures. Honor, revenge, redemption and love intertwine in this stunning historical novel, as gripping as the most seductive legend.
