Conrad Stargard: The Radiant Warrior by Leo Frankowski

2.0

The story of Conrad Stargard continues in this, the third volume of the series. In this book he continues to build his resource base in 13th century Poland in preparation for the expected Mongol invasion, increasing the number of people in his settlement and establishing a military training academy. He deals with some of his more persistent enemies from the earlier books and is promoted from Knight to Baron. All of which is interesting reading and kept my attention. Unfortunately the more unsavoury elements of the previous books are also present, and indeed become worse. So, while I (mostly) enjoyed the book and am keen to find out what happens next, I am really in two minds about recommending it.
