Rejecting knighthood in order to fight as Squire of the Body alongside King Arthur, loyal Celt Christopher of Shores attempts to fight off a Saxon invasion while trying to escape an attempt on his life by one of his own people. Original.
What a shame that this book is now out of print. Peter Telep's first book of the trilogy was not nearly as impressive as this second installment. Yes, there is some lackluster copyediting and Telep's scene descriptions are not always compelling, but overall the good points far outweigh the bad. This novel is filled with painfully flawed characters who are easy to like -- even the "villains." I am looking forward to the conclusion of this trilogy, as Telep left not only the action of the plot to look forward to, but also the lives of each of his characters; and that is something that too many multi-volume epics ignore.
