«El ciclo del Grial: Perceval el Galés» is the historical novel by Jean Markale, published by Mr Ediciones in hardback (284 pages, in Spanish).
Perceval grows up unaware of chivalry after his father and brothers die in a tournament. His encounter with some knights awakens his vocation and leads him to the Fisher King, wounded by a curse that neither Lancelot nor Gauvain managed to break. Perhaps he is the hero announced by Merlin to unveil the mystery of the Grail.
Volume 6 of the saga «El ciclo del Grial»; the original title is «Perceval le Gallois».
For readers interested in Arthurian matter, historical fiction, and tales of chivalry.
