Publisher Notes
After surviving a vicious attack on his village in 1343 A.D., archer Thomas of Hookton joins the army of King Edward III as he prepares to launch an invasion into France, but his quest for vengeance takes him on an epic quest for the Holy Grail.
Media Reviews
"A bestseller in the United Kingdom, Cornwell's story is packed with historical particulars and gripping battles. The brutality of a soldier's life is laid out in vivid detail--how casually men kill, yet how viciously they fight to survive and do what's right. One suspects--and hopes--that Thomas of Hookton's adventures have only yet begun."
