IN THIS FIVE-BOOK BOX SET:
BOOK 1: CRUSADER
1165 AD. King Henry II’s health is fading and his heir, Henry, is being readied for the crown. His younger son, Richard, is preparing for the battlefield. Frederick Banastre has grown up hearing of his father’s adventures in the Second Crusade and when he becomes steward for Richard, he sees his own path to glory. The two become firm friends and head to France to quell the uprising and enforce English rule. But when the king and his heir are put in mortal danger, the way is paved for Richard to seize the crown.
BOOK 2: TREASON
1190 AD. Frederick has taken the cross to fight alongside Richard the Lionheart in the Holy Land. But Richard’s younger brother, Earl John, is desperate for the crown. And despite Frederick’s suspicions of treason, John’s royal blood protects him. Before Richard leaves England, he appoints three regents to keep the country under his control. But then Richard receives news that his reign is under threat, his regents have fallen, and John is plotting to seize the crown. Can Richard and Frederick remain steadfast to stop the uprising?
BOOK 3: TEMPLAR
1216 AD. King John is dead and his son, nine-year-old Henry, is on the throne. The two appointed regents are either devious or in failing health. Frederick knows the kingdom is too fragile to withstand another civil war and believes Count Ramon of Toulouse is the perfect choice for regent. Frederick must convince the count to leave France for England. But first he must help Ramon protect his lands from Simon de Montfort’s bloody crusade.
BOOK 4: SIEGE
King Henry III, England’s unpopular king, is in danger. Since the Magna Carta the country has been in revolt. Frederick is determined to stop the threats to the young king and protect England. His grandsons uncover a plot to poison Henry and the young de Banastres vow to keep him alive. But the threat to Henry’s throne is a constant battle and the de Banastres must remain strong if they hope to prevent the fall of the monarchy.
BOOK 5: KINGMAKER
Thurstan de Banastre is living in dangerous times — the kingdom is desperate to oust the tyrannical king, Henry. The crown jewels have been lost since the time of King John and whoever holds them has the power to anoint a new king. Thurstan’s grandfather, Frederick, stole the jewels and left them in the de Banastre hands. But when Thurstan’s camp is attacked, he and his father are the only survivors. They are the only hope to rid England of Henry and crown a rightful king. But can they achieve what so many have been killed for?
