Dan Jones tells the incredible story of the Knights Templar in his own vivid and forceful style. TLS calls it a 'exhilarating, epic, sword-swinging history.' Jones is an entertainer, but he is also a superb historian who knows how to translate hard study into digestible prose,' The Times says. Observer 'When it comes to riproaring mediaeval novels, Jones has few peers, and in the Templars he finds the perfect subject' Sunday Times 'Another victorious tale from a historian who writes as addictively as any pageturning writer' The Knights Templar were the wealthiest, most powerful - and most secretive - of the crusading military orders.
