A Pilgrim's Journey. Small Bites

From the fields of Normandy to the walls of Jerusalem, one knight's faith will be tested by the cost of victory. When Pope Urban II calls Christendom to reclaim the Holy City, Norman knight Raoul de Varenne takes up the Cross, leaving behind his family, his home, and the only life he has ever known. Accompanied by a loyal band of retainers, he embarks on an extraordinary pilgrimage that will carry him across the splendour of Constantinople, through the scorching plains of Anatolia, and into some of the most brutal battles of the medieval world.
Together they endure the desperate siege of Antioch, survive starvation, disease, and relentless warfare, and finally stand before the sacred walls of Jerusalem. But when the Holy City falls, Raoul discovers that the greatest challenge to his faith is not the enemy before him, but the darkness that can emerge within men who believe they fight in God's name. Rich in historical detail and told through the eyes of one man whose ideals are forged and tested by war, A Pilgrim's Journey is an unforgettable novel of courage, friendship, sacrifice, mercy, and redemption set against the epic backdrop of the First Crusade.
