Set in 1928, this novel reimagines the Cid legend through a modern lens, moving away from 19th-century romanticism to embrace cinematic influences. It presents a straightforward adventure tale that parallels the 1961 film starring Charlton Heston and Sophia Loren, with some lines echoing Huidobro's text. The reprint features the original version with minor edits, a new afterword, and a glossary to clarify historical and legendary figures from Old Spain, enhancing the reading experience for contemporary audiences.
