An Archer's Crusade by Griff Hosker

An Archer's Crusade by Griff Hosker

'Griff Hosker has sold over a million books and I can see why ' - Matthew Harffy, bestselling author of the Bernicia Chronicles.

The battle of Evesham is over, and Gerald War Bow is now the owner of a manor.

But a leader of archers cannot rest for long. Lord Edward is on a mission to hunt down the remaining Simon de Montfort supporters and snuff out the last of the rebellions.

When the rebel leaders prove harder to eliminate than the rest of the mob, Lord Edward is helped in his quest by Pope Adrian V. In thanks, he agrees to join the Crusades with King Louis IX of France.

The so-called holy war is a complex and punishing pursuit, and Lord Edward needs help in defeating the Mamluks. He calls upon his trusted comrade Gerald to lead a crusade of his own, to enlist the aid of Abaqa Khan, a Mongol leader and much needed ally.

With miles of Muslim-controlled land to cross, can Gerald make the journey unscathed, and will his efforts help to turn the war?

Packed with exhilarating action and historical detail, An Archer's Crusade will delight fans of Giles Kristian and Matthew Harffy.

Hosker, Griff: - Griff Hosker was born in 1950 in Lancashire and attended a boy's grammar school. After qualifying as an English and Drama teacher in 1972, he worked in the North East of England for the next 35 years. During that time he did write, mainly plays, pantos and musicals for the students at the three schools in which I worked. When he stopped teaching he set up his own consultancy firm and worked as an adviser in schools and colleges in the North East of England. The new Conservative Government ended that avenue of work and in 2010 he found that he had time on his hands; having started work at the age of 15 he found the lack of work not to my liking and used the time to research the Roman invasion of Britain and begin to create a novel. The result was The Sword of Cartimandua.
