'An excellent collection of tales drawing from different points of the ten centuries of medieval history, and encompassing a wide selection of characters. Both well known and less so. From the immediacy and excitement of a joust gone wrong to struggles crossing the Channel only to find oneself unwelcome on making landfall, this anthology is a series of snapshots of medieval life and history. A history reader’s buffet which I devoured in a single sitting.' J.A. Ironside, author of The King's Knight
Praise for some of the authors included in Iron & Gold:
‘Brun writes with passion and his recreation of this bloody, fascinating world is convincing.’ Antonia Senior, The Times
‘Gooden may be the best history-mystery writer going.’ Booklist
‘O’Brien is a terrific storyteller.’ Daily Telegraph
