by Georgette Heyer


Summary

In the early 15th century, during the middle of the Hundred Years’ War, England and France were fighting for sovereignty over France. It was a time of hand-to-hand combat, the invention of the longbow, and real knights in armor.Simon Beauvallet was born in 1386, the illegitimate son of Geoffrey of Malvallet. After his mother’s death in 1400, he and his half-brother, the legitimate son and heir of his father, became great friends of the Prince, fighting against France.Known for his silence and nicknamed “the Coldheart,” Simon nonetheless loved children and had a complex and deep personality. After the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, he was sent to besiege Belremy, where he met the lady, Margaret, who eventually surrendered to the English and became his bride.“She makes the knightly days live again.” —Boston Evening Transcript“An outstanding storyteller.” —The Times Literary Supplement

From the publisher

One of Georgette Heyer's first books was 'Simon the Coldheart.' During the Hundred Years' War in the early 15th century, England and France were fighting for supremacy over France. Hand-to-hand fighting, the creation of the longbow, and genuine knights in armour characterised this period. Geoffrey of Malvallet's illegitimate son, Simon Beauvallet, was born in 1386. Following the death of his mother in 1400, he and his half-brother, the legal son and heir of his father, became close friends with the Prince and fought against France. Simon, who was known for his quiet and was dubbed ""the Coldheart,"" adored children and had a complex and profound personality.

First line

HE came walking from Bedford into Cambridge one May morning when the sun was still young and the dew scarce gone from the grass.
