About this audiobook
Six brothers, trained since birth to become great warriors, prepare to experience their first taste of battle…1033, the Norman/French border. The sons of Tancred de Hauteville are following in their father’s footsteps. As knights, they have but one true purpose: to fight. But denied service with their Duke, they are forced to take employment as mercenaries: their unequalled battle skills are for hire to the highest bidder. Victory and defeat, betrayal and revenge combine as the desperation to rule the wealthy Norman lands becomes an intense battle, testing even the strongest of ties

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Not your average medieval story. Of course the good guy lives on but this guy isn’t a braggart, is willing to give or take and ultimately achieves his end. The narration is excellent.
I’m anxious to listen to the next book.
