This ambitious novel by Fulgencio Argüelles transports us to the early years of the reign of Ramiro I (843-850), a dark and turbulent period of the nascent Asturian monarchy. Through the story of young Arbidel, squire to Count Palatine Nepociano, the work explores the clash between the ancient beliefs of the Asturian people and the new religion of the cross, in a tale full of love, violence, and deep reflection. This edition, fully revised by the author, is enriched with valuable illustrations by Lorenzo Arias and commentary by Javier Fernández Conde, making it an essential reference for understanding the historical and social transformation of that time, marked by internal revolts and invasions.
