About the book
The new and exciting addition to the Vintaine series by Michael Jecks is here! This gripping story is perfect for those who love Bernard Cornwell and Conn Iggulden.
1358, Northern France. The land is torn apart by war, with King John II as a prisoner of the King of England. His teenage son, the Dauphin, must fight to bring order to the kingdom. But King Charles of Navarre has his own ambitions for power, leading Parisians and the Jacquerie in a rebellion that challenges the social hierarchy, pitting nobles against commoners in a brutal power struggle.
A group of English men and boys, led by John Hawkwood, formerly of Sir John de Sully’s Vintaine, must navigate this dangerous landscape using their wits, combat skills, and reliance on each other.
From the ruins of French villages to the blood-soaked battlefields, their journey is filled with peril, as they face a mysterious enemy seeking revenge. As they confront the harsh realities of medieval warfare, their bonds are tested, their fates intertwined with the fate of a nation.
