Trade Review
"'Demonstrates that one can write in the light of the most recent research without losing excitement and colour... a story which has everything that has always made it so exciting for the general reader: warfare; exploration; western medieval castles in the desert and on Syrian and Greek mountain ranges; heroism alternating with acts of revolting cruelty' PROFESSOR JONATHAN RILEY-SMITH, University of Cambridge."
