Knights of the White Company

Om Knights of the White Company

In 1360, King Edward of England signs a peace treaty to end a twenty-year bloody war with France. This act, unwittingly, cause tens of thousands of displaced knights. A significant number of these knights settled on pillaging and looting the French countryside. The Catholic Pope, unsympathetic to their plight, condemned and called for a 'crusade', against them. Out of this chaos, one company of mercenary knights challenged the ruling nobilities and defied the anointed Holy Pope. Along the way, many people who had no previous intention to get involved are sucked into this world of carnage, including a young girl who must save her life by disguising herself as a young squire and fighting among men. As battles rage on, the mystical becomes inexplicably intertwined with the fabric of our heroes' lives, resulting in a combative story that explores the different ways our histories are connected. In this gripping tale of friendship, deceit, power and corruption, Knights of the White Company explores the medieval in a way that is entirely fresh - perfect for any reader with a passion for our past or readers who simply enjoy a thrilling read.
