Master of War

Master of War Series, Book 1

De: David Gilman

Narrado por: Gildart Jackson

England, 1346: For Thomas Blackstone, the choice is easy - dance on the end of a rope for a murder he did not commit, or take up his war bow and join the king's invasion of France. As he fights his way across Northern France, Blackstone will learn the brutal lessons of war - from the terror and confusion of his first taste of combat, to the savage realities of siege warfare.

Vastly outnumbered, Edward III's army will finally confront the armored might of the French nobility on the field of Crecy. It is a battle that will change the history of warfare, a battle that will change the course of Blackstone's life, a battle that is just the first chapter in the book of a legend - Blackstone: Master of War.

A Gripping Tale of an English Archer

I enjoyed this tale of English Archer Thomas Blackstone. After coming to grips with the truth of his fate, his early life of hard work made him into one of the greatest archers fighting for the English in France. Against orders, he saves the life of a young woman from one of the house of a French noble and the rewards change his life. I thought the narration was excellent. This is the first in the series and I look forward to reading/listening to more from David Gilman.

CONSIDERABLY GREAT ONE

Great narration, could use more special effects, great story line, good main character. Definately one of the better books in this class of series.

Pleasant surprise

Being a big fan of historical fiction I have to say this first book of the series is very good. Story and characters are solid. narration is good. A couple of the reviews almost made me pass on this book and I'm happy I gave it a shot.

one of my favorites

the reader and author of this book have set a standard that many cannot meet let alone exceed.

Not for kids !

This is a finally naratted book. A little rough on language. Had to put headphones on so i wasnt constantly on edge wait for explicits. Strange story of twisted fate and midevil war.
