Blood, Steel and Reputation
by James Gault
Two naive young men set out from 12th century England on a perilous journey toward knighthood “across the sea” in the land of the Normans and Angevins. This is their tempestuous tale of hardship, danger, and the search for power or patronage in a world teeming with deceit and changing alliances.
Though maintaining a lifelong friendship, one courts the road through royal favour while the other looks to the law and business. Both espouse the qualities of loyalty, honour, and chivalry. One will rise to fill the nation’s highest office.
Based on real events, the story seeks to bring to life the tumult that prevailed during the Angevin era in England and Normandy between about 1154 and 1216 from the perspective of two knights. One of those knights is imagined, the other is loosely based upon the life of Sir William Marshall, arguably England’s greatest knight.
