Templar's Acre
ByPublisher Description
A legend is born.
The epic prequel to the Last Templar Mysteries series.The Holy Land, 1291. War has raged here for decades. The Crusader forces have been pushed back again and again until just one city remains in their control. One city that stands between the past and the future. One city that must be defended at all costs: Acre.
Into this battle comes a young boy. Green and scared, he has never seen combat before. But, fleeing a dark past, he has no choice but to stay. That boy is Baldwin de Furnshill who, one day, will become the Last Templar.
This is the story of the siege of Acre, and of the moment Baldwin first charged into battle. This is just the beginning. The rest is history.
The epic prequel to the bestselling Last Templar Mysteries series, perfect for fans of Christian Cameron and Ben Kane.
