Bernard Cornwell
Agincourt is classic Cornwell...[with] attention to historical detail, well-paced action, and descriptive writing that is a pleasure to read." (Boston Globe)
Bernard Cornwell, the New York Times best-selling "reigning king of historical fiction" (USA Today), tackles his most thrilling, rich, and enthralling subject yet - the heroic tale of Agincourt. The epic battle immortalized by William Shakespeare in his classic Henry V is the background for this breathtaking tale of heroism, love, devotion, and duty from the legendary author of the Richard Sharpe novels and the Saxon Tales. This extraordinary adventure will captivate from minute one, proving once again and most powerfully, as author Lee Child attests, that "nobody in the world does this stuff better than Cornwell."

"Nobody in the world does this stuff better than Cornwell. (Lee Child, author of Nothing to Lose)
"Readers who haven't discovered Bernard Cornwell don't know what they are missing....He may well be the best historical novelist writing today -- and Agincourt may well be his best novel yet. (Vince Flynn, author of Extreme Measures)

A fabulous and gruesome yarn

Characters are well formed, history is fully researched and authentic, down to the "farting" expletives.
There is plenty to make you laugh or cringe.
I love the sound of the narrator's voice. It took some time to grow accustomed to listening to his rich accent, but it lends credibility to the story and is more clear with exposure.
I had never been a fan of early-century history books but Agincourt and Mr. Cornwell have changed that!
I am now a huge Bernard Cornwell fan

Assuming the fundamentals of the book to be factual, it provides a wealth of information about the politics, religion, and social structure of that time, which was fascinating.
Criticism would be the characters are wooden; even the main protagonist never engages.

I was astounded by the unadulterated force, the complete madness of medieval warfare, and the blood-curdling relationships between characters in this book. I have incredibly tough skin but the coarseness of this narrative had me taking breaks to watch "Moana" with my 1-year-old at regular intervals.
Cornwell's finest achievement lies in the research he put into making this story as historically accurate as possible. Down to nearly every character, the names in the story are well researched historical figures from Henry V to Nick Hook. Any break from the historical research was well made and taken in small measure. This is truly historical fiction.
Shimmering storytelling, impeccable research

Yes, it's graphic. So was live in the 1400s. Deal with it. This book is to Agincourt what <i>Pillars of the Earth</i> was to cathedrals. I'm certain I will listen to this again and again.
An Incredible Book
