It consists of two parts.
Cervantes wrote the second part 10 years later, in 1615, as a reaction to someone else publishing a second part to his popular novel
So the first part is actually a complete novel
In itself and much shorter than the second part

Cervantes fought in the battle of lepanto, which was the greate comeback of the Holy League against the Ottoman empire. many Christians were freed, but Cervantes became a prisoner of the Ottomans and became famous for his escape attempts and integrity.
