AD 652. Beobrand has been ordered to lead a group of pilgrims to the holy city of Rome. Chief among them is Wilfrid, a novice of the Church with some surprisingly important connections. Taking only Cynan and some of his best men, Beobrand hopes to make the journey through Frankia quickly and return to Northumbria without delay, though the road is long and perilous. But where Beobrand treads, menace is never far behind. The lands of the Merovingian kings are rife with intrigue. The queen of Frankia is unpopular and her ambitious schemes, though benevolent, have made her powerful enemies. Soon Wilfrid, and Beobrand, are caught up in sinister plots against the royal house. After interrupting a brutal ambush in a forest, Beobrand and his trusted gesithas find their lives on the line. Dark forces will stop at nothing to seize control of the Frankish throne, and Beobrand is thrown into a deadly race for survival through foreign lands where he cannot be sure who is friend and who is foe. The only certainty is that if he is to save his men, thwart the plots, and unmask his enemies, blood will flow. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

This is the ninth book in this excellent series and while there are numerous references to our heroes previous escapades, it can easily be read as a standalone novel, in fact in my case it made want to read the series from the start, and as a result I have several in my to be read pile. Quality writing and research atmospheric descriptive with characters who leap of the page so you feel a part of the story. Engaging and entertaining from first to last page, with plenty of at times gruesome action.
Completely and utterly recommended. (
