It feels wonderful finally finishing this novel! Because I read it on my kindle I didn't realize that it was going to be so long. It was different from other Elizabeth Chadwick novels in that it was not about a specific incident but strictly about one man. She did not feel the need to tell the story...
Chadwick's first novel doesn't fell short, and delivers the realistic characters and the history that comes to live that I love and enjoy in all of her books.Guyon, is ordered by the king to marry 16 year old Judith, and he finds himself with a child bride that is scared of her marriage, but is cour...
I really enjoyed this book. I thought I could not read a better book than Scarlet Lion or Greatest Champion about William Marshal, but I was wrong. If you are fan of the the Marshal, this is a must read.
This was my very first Elizabeth Chadwick book and it is far and away my favorite of hers. I've read about four others of hers and none have been able to touch this one.

That is one thing I love about GoodReads; I find new and wonderful books that I would never have picked for myself. This story is based on the life of a forgotten hero, William Marshal, the knight se...
This was a fantastic novel! I can't believe that I hadn't found Elizabth Chadwick before but I can tell you that I will definitely continue to read more of her writing. She kept me interested to the point that even if I wasn't reading I was wondering what was going on with the Bigod family. I defini...
Not bad. Not very epic either, though. The relationship between the two main characters never really felt intense. The story itself was also okay. On the whole, it felt like a romance novel (about the same length, too) with less focus on the inner workings of the relationship. Unfortunately, I didn'...
