Summary

At the age of 32, Richard the Lionheart has finally succeeded Henry II to the English throne. And, against his father’s wishes, he intends to make Berengaria, daughter of the King of Navarre, his Queen. But first he must fulfil his vow to his country to win back Jerusalem for the Christian world. Leaving England to begin his crusade, Richard entrusts his kingdom to his brother, John, who casts covetous eyes on the crown, and his sister, Joanna, who is willing to defy even a king.

Good, it frustrating.

Good speaker, good story. Enjoying the series. Get to the end of this story and discover there is no recording of the next book in the series “The Prince of Darkness” Why? There is only the next after that! I’m so frustrated and disappointed. Please rectify this soon, otherwise, what’s the point of doing any of them?
