About this listen

A hero’s journey begins in an exhilarating new series by Griff Hosker.

In 1335 the Black Death was just 13 years away from England, but there were other threats and dangers. Young John Hawkwood is forced to leave his home and seek a life in London. There he learns how to survive and, more importantly, how to fight. Leaving his life as an apprentice tailor he follows the army and King Edward to fight the Scots. He has a skill: he can not only use a bow, but he can use a sword and his mind. This is just the start for John Hawkwood, who will become - in the fullness of time - one of the greatest condottiere the world has ever seen, a man who, at the Battle of Castagnaro in 1387, shows the world that he was a great leader, too.

I must admit I do appreciate when Marston York Narrates a book and it is written by Griff Hosker. I just love reading his books.

Book one is a great read and stars John Hawkwood as the main character. Never got bored of reading and refers to incidents around the time of the Black Death. Hawkwood travels through Scotland, England and France in this adventure and leads a band of warriors.

Easy reading, you will not be disappointed.

Another great series from Hosker
