Publisher's Summary
King. Politician. Warrior. Conqueror.
1189. Richard the Lionheart's long-awaited goal comes true as he is crowned King of England. Setting his own kingdom in order, he prepares to embark on a gruelling crusade to reclaim Jerusalem.
With him on every step of the journey is Ferdia, his loyal Irish follower. Together they travel from southern France to Italy, to the kingdom of Sicily and beyond.
Finally poised to sail to the Holy Land, Richard finds a bitter two-year-long siege awaiting him. And with it, the iconic Saracen leader responsible for the loss of Jerusalem, Saladin.
No one can agree who should fill the empty throne of the Kingdom of Jerusalem and Saladin's huge army shadows Richard's every move. Conditions are brutal, the temperatures boiling, and on the dusty field of Arsuf, the Lionheart and his soldiers face their ultimate test...

A strong follow up from the first book
I liked this one better than the first book and follows Rufus and Richard the Lionheart to Jerusalem. I felt like I continually wanted to read it and the storyline was good.
I am looking forward to the next instalment where I suspect Rufus and Richard will have numerous things to deal with back in England and France.
I loved the Griff Hosker books and these aren’t as good but still an enjoyable read.

Great Yarn
Thoroughly enjoyed this take. Despite its length it was totally believable and entertaining. I was surprised and disappointed to reach the end.

not bad
The Mills & Boon component is a bit tiresome but on the whole entertaining. Enjoyed it
