Interesting plot, basically true to life. Engaging characters. Worth reading. All three of the series, really.
I have read the complete trilogy translated to the English from Swedish (good translation). The entire body of the trilogy is very detailed which added to the enjoyment of the read. I am thankful to a Norwegian friend who recommended these works of historical fiction.
En del af serien om Arn. En fin, underholdende bog, der dog ikke er så god som den første af Arn-bøgerne.
Very good book enjoyed it right to the end.
It was a good story. I would be interested in reading book 1 and 2
Arn de Gothia, el caballero cruzado sueco que me ha cautivado. En este III volumen este caballero regresa después de 20 años de templario. Arn adquiere gran sabiduría, emocional, espiritual, con una gran capacidad por asimilar las culturas y pensamientos de otros; adquiere riqueza espiritual, valora el amor en su máxima expresión. A su regreso, época en que toda Europa está cambiando, convertirá a Götaland Occidental, la pequeña tierra de campesinos, en el nuevo reino de Suecia.
Apacionante historia, de una gran riqueza de emociones y aventuras, enriquecedoras de vida.

Leta gospodnjeg 1192. godine Arn Magnuson se nakon dvadeset godina provedenih u službi vitezova templara vraća u Zapadni Jetaland. Sa sobom će kući doneti nova znanja i naseljenike, što će predstavljati preduslov za dolazak novog doba u celoj Evropi i što će od Zapadnog Jetalanda, zemlje sitnih seljaka, stvoriti novu kraljevinu Švedsku. Dok Arn i njegova voljena Sesilija nastavljaju show more da se bore za svoju ljubav, koja je za njih sveta i iznad svih političkih intriga, u zemlji se nastavlja surova borba za presto. show less
