1096. The Pope has called for a crusade to free Jerusalem, and half
the warriors of Europe have responded. Among them is the Norman,
Count Bohemund, one-time enemy of Byzantium. In company with his
warrior nephew, Tancred of Lecce, Bohemund must once more cross the
Adriatic to the lands of the Byzantine Empire. His first task,
pushing back the infidel Turks, calls for an uneasy alliance with
old enemy Emperor Alexius. But can the Crusaders trust the wily
Emperor? With old tensions arising, and the violent battles of the
People's Crusade bringing destruction upon middle Europe, the
strength of this reluctant truce, and the de Hauteville dynasty
itself, is truly put to the test. Bohemund is faced once again with
the opportunity to gain power, land and riches for himself, but do
the risks of doing so outweigh the rewards? The Crusaders must
contend with sieges, open battles, hunger and want on their journey
to mighty Antioch, where they face the stiffest test of their
mettle.
