Product Information

The eagerly anticipated follow-up to the number one bestseller Vagabond, this is the third instalment in Bernard Cornwell's Grail Quest series. In 1347 the English capture Calais and the war with France is suspended by a truce. But for Thomas of Hookton, the hero of Harlequin and Vagabond, there is no end to the fighting. He is pursuing the grail, the most sacred of Christendom's relics, and is sent to his ancestral homeland, Gascony, to engineer a confrontation with his deadliest enemy, Guy Vexille. Once in the south country Thomas becomes a raider, leading his archers in savage forays that will draw his enemy to his arrows. But then his fortunes change. Thomas becomes the hunted as his campaign is destroyed by the church. With only one companion, a girl condemned to burn as a heretic, Thomas goes to the valley of Astarac where he believes the grail was once hidden and might still be concealed, and there he plays a deadly game of hide and seek with an overwhelming enemy. Then, just as Thomas succeeds in meeting his enemy face to face, fate intervenes as the deadliest plague in the history of mankind erupts into Europe.

  • Title doesn't matter so long as it says " author Bernard Cornwell" .

    I can't rate this as a product. I have read all of B. Cornwells books apart from the Sharpe series ( I have read only two or three a long time ago) . I have been an English archer in France, a Viking in Alfred's England, a rebel in America's civil war. Simply lost in his writings.

  • Ripping yarn to transport you to ancient Britain.

    Bernard Cornwell is a great story teller and adds accurate details to his story. If you read the trilogy, you will be completely engrossed. I can *highly* recommend him as a writer and this book. Well worth a read on a cold miserable winter day.
