Description
They sought victory and found immortality.
The shepherd's son Nicholas Hook is considered a good-for-nothing, but he has an extraordinary gift: every arrow he shoots hits its target. And so Nick goes along in 1415 when King Henry V's army translates to the mainland. When he meets the beautiful Melisande, she teaches him that not all Frenchmen are devils. Then one day, at the village of Azincourt, 6000 Englishmen face an army of 30000 French knights. An unequal battle. The birth of a legend.
"No one in the world does it better than Bernard Cornwell - six hundred years of action as fresh as if it were not a week ago, with tough, rough warriors who make it clear that nothing changes - least of all the art of telling good stories." (Lincoln Child)
