    About this audiobook

    Sir William the Marshal, legend in his own time, has promised to go on crusade, a vow made to his Young King as he lay dying. But when the Oliphant, legendary war horn of Roland, is stolen by the lethal Assassins, he’s charged with returning the relic in order to stop the very thing he’d vowed to undertake—a crusade; this one engineered by the thieves.

    With his small band of trusted companions—Sir Baldwin, his tourney compatriot; Eustace, his squire; and Henrik, the giant Norseman—William sets out to take back the relic. But treachery abounds, and when William loses two of his companions, he discovers an unlikely ally—Da’ud, an Assassin himself, bent on taking the Oliphant from the heretic faction that has stolen it. The three fight their way across land, sea, and desert, only to find themselves facing an army…and the Oliphant within their grasp.

    Author

    M. Harold Page

    M. Harold Page’s fascination with the legendary Sir William the Marshal—described by thirteenth-century contemporaries as “the greatest knight that ever lived”—dates back to his childhood in Edinburgh, Scotland. He holds a master’s degree in Classics and Medieval History and is a veteran student of Historical European Martial Arts. His tales of medieval heroism are fueled by his love of history and heavy doses of Viking metal, which he listens to while writing. Though widely traveled, he is a family man who still calls Edinburgh home. He currently teaches German longsword for the city’s Dawn Duelists Society. An avid music lover, Page once fronted a blues band and can still play a mean Chuck Berry on the piano.
