William Wallace is accepted as an even greater hero than King Robert the Bruce; he is Scotland's most honoured son, a patriot unrivalled. Bruce fought for a throne; Wallace fought for the nation's freedom with nothing wanted for himself. Terribly, Wallace paid the price, as this story relates.

Nigel Tranter introduces his tremendous novel of the true Macbeth and his struggle to make and save a united Scotland, of his devotion to the greatly-wronged young woman, Gruoch, of the humane laws they sought to establish, the battle he was forced to fight against Malcolm Canmore, the ancient Celtic Church he supported against the threat of Rome, and the price he paid.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 302
It is 1547, and Scotland has been humiliated by an English invasion and is threatened by machinations elsewhere beyond its borders, but it is still free. Paradoxically, her freedom may depend on a man who stands accused of treason. He is Francis Crawford of Lymond, a scapegrace nobleman of crooked felicities and murderous talents, possessed of a scholar's erudition and a tongue as wicked as a rapier. In The Game of Kings, this extraordinary antihero returns to the country that has outlawed him to redeem his reputations even at the risk of his life.

If you could sum up The Bruce Trilogy 1 in three words, what would they be?
Well done abridgementWhat did you like best about this story?
I've read the full version and this abridged version does the tale justice.The story flows seamlessly, and the narration is emotion packed. If you want a quick (well rather quick) introduction to a major foundation of Scottish independence, this is an excellent choice.What about Michael Elder’s performance did you like?
He captures the time and the emotion.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The wooing of Elizabeth De Burgh is given full justice, and for a book written in 1969 is very contemporary. Women lost a great champion when Nigel Tranter, the author, died in 2000.Captures the spirit of the time
