False Ambassador by Christopher Harris
Beginning in 1428, this tale recreates a medieval world on the cusp of civilization. Fifteen-year-old Thomas is sent by his father to be a soldier with the English army, and we are soon taken from savage encounters in France to Rome and Constantinople with murder and pillage along the way.
