In 1219, William Marshal, heroic knight and servant of England, is on his deathbed. In his twilight hours, surrounded by his family, he journeys back through his memories of a two-year stay in Jerusalem, a city brimming with pious pilgrims and grasping nobles. William, his brother Ancel, and a handful of Templar knights make the pilgrimage to atone for stealing from a church. The long journey through enemy lands is fraught with violence and intrigue, but that's nothing compared to what awaits them in the holiest of cities. Full of medieval grandeur and grit, the tale of William's encounter with a powerful cast of characters, including enigmatic concubine Paschia de Riveri, is one to be savored. VERDICT Chadwick (The Greatest Knight) brings the sights and smells of the 12th century alive in her latest chronicle of real-life knight-hero William. Fans of Philippa Gregory, Ken Follett, and C.W. Gortner will enjoy his honorable foil to the corruption of the court and church.--Christine Barth, Scott Cty. Lib. Syst., IA
