Descriptionof Assassins and Templars
Manufacturer

The Assassins and the Templars are two of the most legendary groups in history. One was a Shiite religious sect, the other a Christian military order founded to defend the Holy Land. They were in fierce conflict with each other and had very different reputations, followings and ambitions. Yet they developed strikingly similar strategies and their intertwined histories show uncanny parallels. In this account, Steve Tibble traces the history of these two groups from their beginnings to their ultimate destruction. He shows how, outnumbered and surrounded, they could only survive by perfecting the promise of death, whether in the form of a Templar attack or an Assassin's dagger. Death, for themselves or their enemies, was at the heart of these extraordinary organisations. Their fanaticism changed the medieval world and to this day, they remain inextricably linked to myths and memories in video games and countless conspiracy theories.
