Becket: Book 1
"Warrior is a swift, breathless plunge into the high medieval period." J.A. Ironside, author of The King's Knight
1159
Toulouse.
Thomas of London, Chancellor of England, has spent a lifetime as a clerk, administrator, and ambassador. Now he must prove himself a warrior and leader of men, if his friend and master King Henry II of England is to achieve his ambition to rule all France.
The fiery King and calculating Chancellor are as close as brothers, but many at court see Thomas as an upstart. Becket must fight on a political as well as military front.
The city of Toulouse controls trade into Spain and the Mediterranean. With it in English hands, Henry will control more of the Frankish Kingdom than Louis VII of France.
The French King, and Count Raymond of Toulouse, will stop at nothing to save the city and France from the greatest English host ever assembled.
Thomas and the English army must prove their mettle, or be condemned to defeat on foreign soil.
Recommended for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Michael Jecks and Conn Iggulden.
Becket: Warrior is the first book in a new series by acclaimed author, Jemahl Evans, based on the life of the medieval martyr.
