    About this series

    BARCELONA, 1285

    Josep Goodman has survived the war in Sicily and returned to the woman he loves, but soon toxic infighting plunges the Catalan-Aragonese Crown into civil war.

    Unless another battleground is found for the bellicose Almogavers, Sicily will be engulfed once again in a terrifying bloodbath that will bring an abrupt end to Josep's idyllic rural life.

    Enter Roger de Flor, financier and flamboyant soldier of fortune. Can he steer the destiny of Josep, the Almogavers, the people of Sicily, the Catalan-Aragonese Crown and the Byzantine Empire of Constantinople in one fell blow?

    Loyalties switch, friends become foes, kings and princes marry their enemies. Swept up in the storm, Josep eyes one last campaign that - if he survives it - could bring wealth beyond his imagination.

    The Chronicles of The Forgotten Kingdom reach a heart-stopping, bloody climax in this third and final chapter, The Curse of Constantinople.

      In a time before the Kingdom of Spain, in a land still in shock during the Holy Wars of Reconquest against the Moors. Pockets of Muslims still live in the hills, in fear of their lives. Rogue Christian warriors track them down and kill them for the little they have, or just to kill.   Barcelona, 1276   A single mother in a foreign land. Her eight-year-old son witnesses a brutal murder, and she suspects his uncle - an Almogaver warrior - is responsible.    Should she simply accept the unseen hand of fate, or do everything in her power to save her son from harm, and indeed from the clutches of his uncle?    With the help of his patron, Jacques de Molay, she sends Josep to Cavallers - a school for knights - but sees it changing him, and not for the better. In the absence of a father to guide him, Josep must hone his survival skills rapidly to shield himself from the intrigue, conflict and violence that surround him there.    And what of the Templars and the Cathars, and their true role in this mystery?   These are treacherous times for young Josep to navigate, and all the time war is coming between Catalonia and France.
