Keeper of the Grail

The Youngest Templar Trilogy, Book 1

De: Michael P. Spradlin

Narrado por: Paul Boehmer

Washed up on a foreign shore, Tristan is lucky to be alive. As before, it seems to be a miracle - the Holy Grail the young Templar squire is protecting has saved his life yet again. But now he is lost in a strange land, and he doesn’t know if his friends, the fiery archer Robard Hode and the Saracen assassin maid Maryam, still survive. Tristan’s knack for getting into trouble is alive and well, though, and he quickly finds himself drawn into a conflict between a heretical band of Cathars and the oppressive King of France.

With his duty to the Grail pulling him back toward Britain, Tristan finds himself falling for the beautiful leader of the Cathars. And when he chooses to help her in her people’s hour of need, Tristan risks not only himself but his friends and the Grail itself on a quest that may prove to be a disaster.

I hate cliffhangers. "To be continued".....

"to be continued" are horrible words when you're really getting into a story. now I have no real choice but to buy the next book. I'm glad I wasn't ready this when the series first started.

Recommended by reader and I loved it

I’m an author myself and just the other day had a reader reach out and mention this book as one of her favorites. I’m so glad she did!

Historical fiction, especially in dark age and crusade era, is one of my favorite genres. This book captured the elements of history and intertwined fiction in an engaging and entertaining way. the characters were well developed and plot kept me engaged.

The narrator did fantastically! He brings a life to the story that makes it easy to get lost in. Each character is given a unique voice without any voice being unpleasantly jarring.

Overall, a fantastic listen and I will be continuing the series with the next book. Likely will do so today.

AMAZING

I read this book about 8 or 9 years ago in high school and I absolutely loved it and when I saw it on this app I no doubt had to listen to it! Highly recommend, it’s a really good read!
