The spellbinding sequel to The Archers Tale--the second in Cornwells acclaimed Grail Quest series--is a rousing epic of vengeance, blood, honor, and love. From New York Times bestselling author Bernard Cornwell, the sequel to The Archers Tale--the spellbinding tale of a young man, a fearless archer, who sets out wanting to avenge his familys honor and winds up on a quest for the Holy Grail. In 1347, a year of conflict and unrest, Thomas of Hookton returns to England to pursue the Holy Grail. Among the flames of the Hundred Years War, a sinister enemy awaits the fabled archer and mercenary soldier: a bloodthirsty Dominican Inquisitor who also seeks Christendoms most holy relic. But neither the horrors of the battlefield nor sadistic torture at the Inquisitors hands can turn Thomas from his sworn mission. And his thirst for vengeance will never be quenched while the villainous black rider who destroyed everything he loved still lives. Cornwell writes the best battle scenes of any writer Ive read past or present.--George R.R. Martin
