REBEL. LEADER. BROTHER. KING.

1179. Henry II is King of England, Wales, Ireland, Normandy, Brittany and Aquitaine. The House of Plantagenet reigns supreme.

But there is unrest in Henrys house. Not for the first time, his family talks of rebellion.

Ferdia - an Irish nobleman taken captive during the conquest of his homeland - saves the life of Richard, the kings son. In reward for his bravery, he is made squire to Richard, who is already a renowned warrior.

Crossing the English Channel, the two are plunged into a campaign to crush rebels in Aquitaine. The bloody battles and gruelling sieges which followed would earn Richard the legendary name of Lionheart.

But Richards older brother, Henry, is infuriated by his siblings newfound fame. Soon it becomes clear that the biggest threat to Richards life may not be rebel or French armies, but his own family...

A rip-roaring epic, filled with arrows and spattered with blood. Gird yourself with mail when you start. Paul Finch
