Summary

Europe is aflame. On the Iberian Peninsula the wars of the Reconquista rage across Aragon and Castile. Once again, the Moors are gaining the upper hand. Christendom is divided.

Amid the chaos comes a young knight: Arnau of Valbona. After his Lord is killed in an act of treachery, Arnau pledges to look after his daughter, whose life is now at risk. But in protecting her Arnau will face terrible challenges, and enter a world of Templars, steely knights, and visceral combat he could never have imagined. She in turn will find a new destiny with the Knights as a daughter of war....

Can she survive? And can Arnau find his destiny?

An explosive novel of greed and lust, God, and blood, Daughter of War marks the beginning of an epic new series from bestseller S.J.A. Turney. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden, and Matt Harffy.

Let the women take over!

I can’t quite put my finger on why this isn’t a five for me but it isn’t. It’s a perfectly fine book but it didn’t grab me. Girl avoiding a forced marriage and a young knight end up joining the Templars to seek sanctuary and end up totally committed to defending their new comrades. The main character is the young knight , not the girl despite the title of the book. Trouble is that he’s quite stupid and gets several people killed because of that. He redeems himself later (of course) but by then I’d rather taken against him and hoped someone would shoot him at the end. This book does have one of the best Author’s Notes in a while. Even a mature professional like me kept snorting at the mention of a Sister Titborga and thankfully the author is very understanding of such silliness!

Slightly predictable

An unusually setting but a fairly formulaic story. It held my interest well enough but I don’t think I’ll be reading any more in the seties

Very enjoyable book.
