The title misled me to think of this as another science fiction jaunt into a galaxy far, far away. Actually this, his second novel, is set in the 13th century reign of King Henry III, is one of only two historical novels that he wrote. And, shiver my timbers, but isn't this another Robin Hood/Ivanhoe epic?
"At 17 - The greatest swordsman in England.
At 18 - A price on his head.
At 19 - The leader of a band of a thousand.
Who was this Norman of Torn? Where did he come from? All that anyone knew was that his blade was sharp, his arm strong. Then - as he was about to uncover the secret of his birth- he found himself in the greatest peril he'd ever known."
