Could there really be a work prior to that first part of the "Ingenious Hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha" Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra led the press in 1605? And is it really possible that it is submit to the gentleman as "a man so obsessed by Stories of zombies and zombified whom were in the land where he lived, he decided to become nothing less than tracker not dead, explaining how in those books, "as stated categorically in some literary circles?
And who was that Hazael G. Gonzalez, who signed the text attributed to Cervantes but stating that what the writer was finally issued a modified and very smooth (in which Don Quixote and did not want to be slayer of the undead, but knight) that first text? What is there in the fragmentary stories, considered for many apocryphal, telling encounters between the same Cervantes and the dead walk, thus justifying the early love of the great writer for that genre?
For the first time in English, comes in as full and complete text commonly known as 'Don Quixote Z' as the mysterious Hazael G. Gonzalez left the compound, which adds a story of adventure in Lepanto Cervantes against zombified, written apocryphal, and polished and appropriate the language of our day by Professor Gualberto G. Álvarez, professor at the University of Cerredo Asturian and specialist zombies and other undead species that have existed throughout history.
not long ago began to proliferate in bookstores novels of this type, in which adulterated the original works to include things such contrary or foreign to them as they could be vampires, androids or as in this case, zombies. To me, this is the first contact with this type of literature that many characterize as sacrilege, blasphemy and much worse. However, it also has its audience and wanted to go into this subgenre to see what generated so much controversy. For my part I must say that I was not surprised either for good or for evil, has been eager to finish a novel that once peaked and that cost me to take without some regret, because, although it is well written, with the tone and the language's own original work and time, there something in it that it is and makes it heavy. It's like being re-read the original Quixote except criminals see giant figure of undead zombies or living as they are sometimes called here. Almost all the passages of the original returned to me every time I read a chapter and, although this work is of smaller volume, the author has managed to shorten it, if you know precisely, that does not spread too much. Best of the work, and certainly personal opinion, is the story the beginning: Blood Moon at Lepanto; is this a great story that tells the story of the illustrious zombified Miguel de Cervantes in the famous battle where he was maimed. When the book is presented in this paper, so illusory, the reader might think that what you will find after the tone and dynamics of these first few pages and say illusory because it does not happen to be re-read anything like below. Who starts the reading of Don Quixote Z hopes to find a zombie story with all that that implies and that it reflects that first introductory story, but we found a hypothetical story about undead, that there is not more than the imagination of the unhappy Don Quixote, which ends in dementia follow his loyal squire Sancho Panza. Thus, we find little difference with Cervantes who wrote Don Quixote. Nevertheless, it is a work that, even out of curiosity, may be worth reading, although I know by comments from some colleagues who are best in the genre. No fester discouragement to those who want to venture into this field and more specifically through Z Quixote, as if language like baroque, intricate and old sure Z enjoyed this version of the famous gentleman.
