The Ill-Made Knight

Chivalry, Book 1

De: Christian Cameron

Narrado por: Saul Reichlin

Discover the first medieval adventure in the action-packed Chivalry series! Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Simon Scarrow and Conn Iggulden.

September, 1356. Poitiers.

The greatest knights of the age were ready to give battle.

On the English side, Edward, the Black Prince, who'd earned his spurs at Crecy.

On the French side, the king and his son, the dauphin. With 12,000 knights.

And then there is William Gold. A cook's boy - the lowest of the low - who had once been branded as a thief. William dreams of being a knight, but in this savage new world of intrigue, betrayal and greed, first he must learn to survive.

As rapacious English mercenaries plunder a country already ravaged by plague, and the peasantry take violent revenge against the French knights who have failed to protect them, is chivalry any more than a boyish fantasy?

Great Narration

I can be picky about audiobooks, and start many without finishing. This was A+++ it is fascinating medieval historical fiction, which tracks true historical events. The narrator is as so good, I enjoyed every minute. Highly recommend.

Fantastic!

Don’t listen to the negative reviews about this one. The Chivalry series is fantastic from start to finish. Non-stop action and character development that traverses all the books. Christian Cameron is among the best historical fiction writers hands down.

Tremendous story overcomes average reader

This is the beginning of the saga of William Gold - English man at arms, mercenary, knight and student of the ways of the chivalrous life. I think this author is one of the best at historical fiction today and highly recommend this along with all of hus historical novels. They follow actual events well, get the reader attached to the main characters and create a storyline that’s difficult to stop listening to once you start.

Great voice acting - great story

What a cool find. Great book and great story. The voice actor did an awesome job as well.

good but hard to follow at times

a little difficult to follow at times and I did a lot of rewinding, but the ending was great and the narrator did a really good job. I'll probably buy the next book in the series
