Hawkwood

Af: David Donachie Engelsk Paperback
Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

Fourteenth-century Italy: The Hundred Years'' War is over and the country is in upheaval as desperate cities struggle against both each other and venal Papal rule. Unable to rely on their own citizens to fight their battles, the cities and Popes are forced to pay vast amounts of money to mercenary captains to fight on their behalf.

Newly-knighted Sir John Hawkwood is headed for France to make his fortune. A valiant Englishman, shrewd and relentless on the battlefield, Hawkwood soon finds himself fighting for and against any state of Italy prepared to pay handsomely. If none will pay, he and the White Company brutally seize what they desire. As he leaves stains of his presence up and down the country, those who curse Hawkwood at their defeat can soon be those who praise him for their deliverance.

It is a world of massacre and pillage in which life is less than cheap and no one can be trusted. To survive, a man has to be quick thinking, fleet of foot, and strong in his sword arm . . . and Hawkwood is such a man.
