Overview

Después de la batalla de Crécy (1346), episodio central de la primera entrega de este ciclo narrativo, Thomas de Hookton es enviado por el rey de nuevo a Inglaterra, donde los escoceses, a petición de los franceses y aprovechando la merma de las defensas, han invadido el norte del país provocando la que pasará a la historia como la batalla de Neville's Cross y en la que homas se ve envuelto a su pesar. Eso no impide que siga su peregrinaje en busca del Grial, que le llevará de vuelta a su pueblo natal y a Francia, donde asistirá a otra batalla memorable: la de La Roche Derrien, en la que Carlos de Blois fue derrotado y hecho prisionero y en la que nuestro protagonista tendrá un destacado protagonismo.
Bernard Cornwell es considerado el mejor autor de novela histórica de aventuras en activo. Es de los pocos autores capaces de situar dos de sus novelas entre las diez más vendidas en el Reino Unido.

After the Battle of Crécy, the central episode of the first installment of this series, Thomas de Hookton is sent by the king back to England where the Scots, at the request of the French and taking advantage of the decline in defenses, have invaded the north of the country causing what will go down in history as the battle of Neville's Cross and in which Thomas is involved despite himself. That does not prevent him from continuing his pilgrimage in search of the Grail, which will take him back to his hometown and to France, where he will attend another memorable battle: that of La Roche Derrien, in which Charles de Blois was defeated, taken prisoner and in which our protagonist will have a prominent role.
