Description

Will Campbell is a Templar Knight, trained for war. But as a member of the secret brotherhood known as the Brethren, he is also a man of peace.

After years of bloodshed, the Brethren have helped to create an uneasy truce between the Christian and Muslim forces in the Holy Land.

But there are those on both sides for whom peace is not an option.

And when an assassination attempt is made on the new Grand Master of the Temple, Will finds himself caught in a devastating web of deception and destruction as the Eastern world rushes headlong towards a catastrophic conflict.

Reviews

Crusade is a sweeping historical adventure as well as a cracking sequel - Financial Times

If you like your history with plenty of action, and the minimum of tricksiness, then this second part of a proposed trilogy is for you. All this is stitched together into a narrative whose attention to historical detail is offset by its pacey dialogue. - The Times

Praise for the Brethren trilogy - . . .

BRETHREN is one of the best historical debuts in recent memory. Exciting and enthralling, it gripped me from the first page and left me waiting anxiously for the next instalment - John Connolly

Pacy and well-written, with vivid, convincing characters, Brethren captures your interest until the last page. I eagerly anticipate the sequel, knowing I will not be disappointed - Alison Weir

Engaging and enjoyable - Robyn Young brings the tumultuous medieval world to life with pace and flair - Tom Harper, author, Knights Of The Cross

If you love the Templars, the Crusades, and the Middle Ages, this is the book for you. Robyn Young is an exciting new voice that speaks loudly - Sharon Penman on BRETHREN

A sweeping historical adventure with strong characters and serious verve...hits all the big emotional points...Can't wait for the next two volumes! - Sarah Weinman on BRETHREN
