The ancient civilizations of the pre-Columbian period suffered at the hands of many conquistadors. Despite the novel's firm historical basis, it remains a work of fiction, fueled by a great amount of raw imagination enriched over the centuries. The novel portrays the adventures of four young men, adventures experienced not only through their eyes but also by characters of rich indigenous mythology. The novel seeks to reclaim the role these civilizations played, especially the culture of the Salvadoran people, before they became the victims of centuries of genocide. Intriguing legends and customs from El Salvador show us the reality that many of us may have been unaware of. Those who have the pleasure of reading The Just Judge of the Night will thoroughly enjoy it and will learn a lot about the culture of ancient civilizations.
