'Full of action and historical insight ... For fans of Bernard Cornwell and Michael Jecks.' Richard Foreman
1330.
Edward III of England calls on Lancastrian baron and longbow archer Sir Thomas Holland to capture Roger Mortimer, the regent who usurped the young king's throne and murdered his father.
Holland and his bowmen next help butcher the Scots at Dupplin Moor and destroy the French fleet at Sluys.
Yet the archer's greatest challenge is still to come.
The Black Prince and Holland lead a great raid across Normandy. But not all goes according to plan.
Two French armies pin the heavily-outnumbered English between the Seine and Somme.
Their one hope of escape is to cross a dangerous ford. Thomas personally leads the vanguard and although he engineers the defeat of a waiting enemy force, there is still blood to be spilled.
The archer and the Prince must still face a desperate battle against the might of France - at a village called Crecy.
Recommended for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Michael Jecks and Robyn Young.
