Not all is as it seems in this collection of dark tales from the
Middle Ages.
Mark Lord, the author of "By the Sword's Edge" and "Hell has its
Demons," weaves five Medieval short stories to excite, scare and
enthral you. From the vicious struggle of the Hundred Years War, to
legends of werewolves and rumours of necromancers and ghosts, to
the bitter conflict of a castle under siege, the action and
adventure never stop. These five fast-paced short stories will keep
you on the edge of your seat and turning every page until you reach
the end.
In "Stand and Fight" Richard Hope must overcome treachery to
defend the castle of Montmal from the French. Jake, an English
archer in "Chivalry" must choose between his comrades and the path
of honour. In "Bird Talk" a young priest discovers the woman he
loves may also be a necromancer. Frederick II, the "Stupor Mundi,"
the wonder of the world, is haunted by the ghost of his dead
chancellor. And in "Bisclavret" a French noblewoman discovers there
is more under the skin of her English husband than she could
imagine.
