About this product

Product Information

ON THE EVE OF THE LAST CRUSADE... One young knight, bound by faith, driven by valour, begins a quest to protect a secret that could change the course of history irrevocably. A richly detailed, epic historical adventure set in Paris, London, Egypt, and Palestine on the eve of the last Crusade, Brethrentells the story of a young knight’s search for a mysterious (and potentially deadly) book belonging to a secret organization within the Knights Templar. When young Will Campbell joins the most powerful organization in Europe, The Order of the Knights Templar, he finds himself drawn into a world of intrigue and danger. He is charged with recovering a heretical book stolen from the order’s vaults—but what Will doesn’t know is that the book, in the form of a Grail Romance, hides the covert plans of a secret group within the Temple known as the Anima Templi: the Soul of the Temple. Whoever controls the book controls the fate of the Templars—and it seems that everyone around Will is ready to kill to possess it. Brethrenalso traces the rise of Baybars Bundukdari, an ambitious commander in the Egyptian army, who, after assassinating the sultan, takes control of Egypt and Syria. The two stories come together during Baybars’s campaign for a new Holy War that will cripple an empire and bring the Crusaders to their knees. Cleverly combining two narratives—East and West—author Robyn Young gradually reveals the many links that bring two great cultures to war, creating a multifaceted world of sultans, troubadours, priests, and knights; strong-willed women and foul-mouthed murderers; sieges, battles, courage, and betrayal. With nail-biting battle scenes, a wonderfully complex villain, and an encyclopedic grasp of historical detail, Brethrenbrings this fascinating period vividly alive.

Excellent Historical Fiction. I can't wait 4 follow-up
Robyn Young has shown true greatness in this, her first novel. The story, which surrounds the Crusades and all that relates; the Templar Knights (and their counterparts of the time; Hospitallers and Teutonics), the Mongols, the Sultan Baybars, Kings Richard the Lionheart & Henry III and Prince Edward of England, Louis IX of France. The story encompasses the crusades from the viewpoint of both the christians and the muslims and firmly gives understanding of both sides reasons for the wars. It also shows the dark side of man and the desire for power and profit. Following William Campbell from childhood as a sergeant in the Knights Templar to his succession to Knight, the story is engrossing with rich descriptions of locations and people. This is not just a novel, nor just the first part of a trilogy; it is the beginning of an epic adventure that ranks with the best historical fiction I have ever read. The history is intertwined perfectly with the fictional characters and the facts are very well based. Robyn Young is a gifted writer and I eagerly look forward to parts 2 and 3 of this trilogy as well as here future works. ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL HISTORICAL FICTION.Read full review

FABULOUS FIRST BOOK
Any book that is well written is worh reading, regardless of subject matter. I have always enjoyed historical fiction, mystery, thriller type books and am really excited that this is the first of a trilogy. I just dislike the wait for the other two books. An author to watch and an even better one to read....

Pretty good book for history lovers. If you are interested in history of crusades or Templars you should find this an interesting read. If you are looking for Da Vinci or Templar Legacy type book this may not be for you. There is no modern day aspect to this one. It takes place entirely in the period of the crusades. I have read it an enjoyed it quite a bit. Think it is worth your time if you are history buff. Not that all the details in here will be historically accurate but still fun read.

Fantastic Debut Novel
I truly enjoyed this book. It is well written and has a great mix of fact, fiction, charming characters and a strong plot. I always enjoy books about The Crusades and The Knights Templar. I also recommend Steve Berry's "Templar Legacy".
