Dela Armadura Oxidada — El Caballero

While Fisher was American, the book became a cult classic in Latin America and Spain, often used in coaching, therapy, and leadership seminars. Its Spanish title is as famous as the original. The story follows the knight, a classic "hero" who slays dragons, rescues damsels, and fights for justice. However, he is vain, insecure, and addicted to external validation.
