This is the story of Will Campbell a reluctant Knight Templar, his friendship and love and his growth from a boy to a man. Will is a Templar because his father decided he should be, he lives with the guilt of having accidentally killed his sister and that his father didn't speak to him for years.
It's also the story of Baybars and his fight to rise his life from Malmuk slave to ruler. Ruthless he pursues the expulsion of Christians from the lands he regards as his with ruthlessness.
It's interesting, could possibly have done with some quite severe editing to cut out some of the info-dumping but still once I got over the first 100 pages it moved quite quickly. Nothing spectacularly new in the genre but interesting all the same.
