Sparhawk and his companions set forth to find King Sarak’s grave by raising ghosts of those who had perished in that ancient battle. The Seeker, an insectile monster spawned of the evil God Azash, hounded their every step. Still Sparkawk pressed on, driven by desperate need. They had to find Bhellion before his queen could perish. They must not fail!
Download or read book The Red Knight written by Miles Cameron and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2013-01-22 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miles Cameron weaves an epic tale of magic and mercenaries, war and depravity, politics and intrigue in this action-packed debut fantasy The Red Knight. Twenty eight florins a month is a huge price to pay, for a man to stand between you and the Wild. Twenty eight florins a month is nowhere near enough when a wyvern's jaws snap shut on your helmet in the hot stink of battle, and the beast starts to rip the head from your shoulders. But if standing and fighting is hard, leading a company of men -- or worse, a company of mercenaries -- against the smart, deadly creatures of the Wild is even harder. It takes all the advantages of birth, training, and the luck of the devil to do it. The Red Knight has all three, he has youth on his side, and he's determined to turn a profit. So when he hires his company out to protect an Abbess and her nunnery, it's just another job. The abby is rich, the nuns are pretty and the monster preying on them is nothing he can't deal with. Only it's not just a job. It's going to be a war. . . If you're a fan of Mark Lawrence, John Gwynne, or Brian McClellan you won't want to miss out on this intricate, epic debut fantasy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Everyone who has raved about Elizabeth Chadwick as an author of historical novels is right."—Devourer of Books on The Greatest Knight In another remarkable work of medieval fiction, Elizabeth Chadwick continues the tale of The Greatest Knight, and shares a story of power, chaos, and the price of loyalty. William Marshal's skill with a sword and loyalty to his word have earned him the favor of kings, the lands of a magnate, and the hand of Isabelle de Clare, one of England's wealthiest heiresses. But he is thrust back into the chaos of court when King Richard dies. The vindictive new king clashes with William, claims the Marshal lands for the Crown—and takes two of William's sons hostage. The price of his loyalty to the Crown suddenly seems too high and the very heart of William and Isabelle's family is at stake. Fiercely intelligent and fearing for the man and marriage that light her life, Isabelle plunges with her husband down a rebellious path that will lead William to more power than he ever expected. Brilliantly researched and deeply compelling, Elizabeth Chadwick delivers another masterpiece of medieval historical fiction, with favor, drama, and damaged loyalty that will keep you rapt until the very end. "Elizabeth Chadwick is a gifted novelist and a dedicated researcher; it doesn't get any better than that."—Sharon Kay Penman, New York Times bestselling author More Novels of Elizabeth Chadwick's William Marshal: The Greatest Knight The Scarlet Lion For the King's Favor Templar Silks To Defy a King

The main character is a British Army general who is assigned by beings from another universe to bring about apotheosis for mankind after defeating its mortal and immortal enemy. * * * Mankind has only two choices after science and technology renders the species utterly obsolete and incapable of survival in the future. One choice compels humanity to submit body and soul to a sinister supernatural civilisation, whilst the other impels mankind to submit to a utopian bioengineering paradigm. The first choice results in extinction of the singularity of the human soul, whilst the second choice leaves it infinitely free and self-determined. General Sir George Smythe, Team Alpha, Nagual sorcerer and quantum computer battle Wingtip and spirit forces at his command to turn the tide of mankind´s survival dilemma decidedly in their favour. In order to prevail against their mortal and immortal foe, they must marshal all the genius and intellectual resources at their disposal to overcome Wingtip´s spiritual advantage. Time is of the essence since their foe is on the brink of delivering the final coup d´état to mankind. The Divine Blade, can be wielded only for the thirteenth and last time. And only a paragon of mankind is fit to wield the Puramore to defeat the mortal and immortal enemy and lead mankind to apotheosis. Failure is not an option for George Smythe, nor for mankind, whether or not he proves himself worthy to wield Puramore. *** If you enjoyed Dan Brown´s "The Lost Symbol", you´ll enjoy discovering the mystic secret of the Puramore talisman.

Have you ever dreamt of swapping your backpack for a suit of armor and riding o to join your fellow knights on a quest? King Arthur superfans Kate and Eddie long to do just that. One weekend, while exploring the towers and corridors of a historic castle with Kate’s younger brother, Angus, the three adventurers travel back in time to the fourteenth century to see if they have what it takes to be knights. Tutored by none other than the original author of the Book of Chivalry, Geoffroi de Charny, these young squires learn how to regale their friends with stories of battles won and lost, discover the secrets of the chivalric code—including knightly etiquette and the trick to getting your armor on and o —and receive vital weapons training. Kate, Eddie, and Angus learn how to wield a lance during a jousting tournament, how to somersault in a suit of armor, how to rally the troops with a poem, and how to be a female knight (in case being the damsel in distress just isn’t for you). Full of zany illustrations and inspired by the book Knight, written by medieval history expert Michael Prestwich and based on an original chivalric manual, So You Want to Be a Knight? explores the life of a medieval knight in irreverent but accurate detail.
