The saga about the wanderings of a shepherd from the island of Homer, who mistakenly boarded one of Christopher Columbus's ships heading to the New World, has been translated into many languages and published in millions of copies. Almost fifteen years after the publication of the last novel about the odyssey of a clever Canarian, the author decided to send the hero into another adventure, the most risky and amazing. He would become acquainted with lands and cultures that almost no one knew about, being one of the first Europeans to arrive in North America. Few people describe with such accuracy the customs of the peoples who then lived in the Stone Age, not knowing the wheel and horses, while Europe had already entered the Renaissance period.
