The King is dead. Defeated on the field of Poitiers, Jean Le Bon, King of France, honored his treaty with England until his death. His son and heir, Charles V, has no intention of doing the same. War is coming and the predators are circling. Sir Thomas Blackstone, Edward III's Master of War, has been tasked with securing Brittany for England. In the throes of battle, he rescues a young boy, sole witness to the final living breaths of the Queen of Castile. The secret the boy carries is a spark deadly enough to ignite conflict on a new front - a front the English cannot afford to fight on. So Blackstone is ordered south to Castile, across the mountains to shepherd Don Pedro, King of Castile, to safety. Accompanied only by a small detachment of his men and a band of Moorish cavalrymen loyal to the king, every step takes Blackstone further into uncertain territory, deeper into an unyielding snare. For the Master of War, the shadow of death is always present. 541 $d 20210929. 600 1 $a Edward III, King of England, 1312-1377_vFiction. 600 1 $a Blackstone, Thomas (Fictitious character)_vFiction. 650 $a Hundred Years' War, 1339-1453 $v Fiction. 650 $a Battles $v Fiction. 651 $a Great Britain $x History $y Edward III, 1327-1377 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. 830 $a Master of War ; ; $v 7. 941 $a 1 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20211230010311.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=277A5B36693E11ECA33384CB45ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
