I remember reading Henry Treece and Nigel Tranter novels when I was at high school and how much I enjoyed the tales.
You were always thrown back in time and with out really knowing it taken on a bit of a history lesson.
I enjoyed the book, I enjoyed the tale, I was not to keen on the lead character but there was enough happening to keep you wanting to find out how it all ends.
At times the dialogue seemed a bit stilted but it is a minor quibble. It is a well paced story, lots of action, a bit of romance and what more could you want.

Couldn’t get into it. Was written ok, not for me
