Chivalry #6
The Emperor's Sword
The penultimate instalment in the Chivalry series from a master of historical fiction.
The Chivalry series follows young William Gold, who runs away from London to follow the Black Prince, from the killing fields of France, through life as a routier and criminal, and to redemption with the Knights of Saint John, further disillusion and an eventual career as a professional soldier and knight. Rich in the details of life in the High Middle Ages, the series also deals with modern issues about the role of violence in society, rules of conflict and war, and the price that people pay for using violence.

Pulled another of my all night marathon reads. This book was everything I have come to expect from this series and author. In depth and hard hitting sword and cloak at its finest. Eagerly awaiting the next installment.
