Critic Reviews
Gritty, pacy historical fiction. The action never lets up and it's a real pleasure to share the perilous adventures of Will and his hard-fighting band of followers (Simon Scarrow, #1 Sunday Times bestseller)
Fast paced, deeply immersive . . . [Scott Mariani] shows his deep knowledge of the period in this excellent read. A read-to-the-end page turner, this is historical fiction as it should be written (Ben Kane, Sunday Times bestselling author)
Scott Mariani brings the Third Crusade to authentic and bloody life on the page. Stalwart knights, a wily and fanatical enemy and, best of all, Greek Fire! What a treat!' (Anthony Riches, Sunday Times bestseller)
For readers who enjoy an exciting and suspenseful story with lots of action, convincing historical detail, and a likeable hero, there is much to enjoy
Two of my favourite things have come together - Scott Mariani's masterful storytelling and the medieval world. Meticulously researched and skilfully brought to life (Philippa Langley MBE)
Mariani has clearly researched the late 12th century in some detail - and delivers a gripping tale
