Dit epos is een meesterwerk van morele allegorie, dat deugden viert door ridderlijke queestes en fantastische ontmoetingen. Elk boek duikt in een ander deugdzaam personage, waarbij ingewikkelde verhalen over heldendom en verleiding worden verweven in een rijk verbeelde wereld. Het is een tijdloze verkenning van geloof, moed en gerechtigheid, die diepgaande inzichten biedt in de menselijke conditie.
