Opis

Battle scarred from Crecy, but covered in glory, and with new responsibilities, Thomas of Hookton wants nothing more than to continue as one of England's bravest archers. But the King has heard of his extraordinary inheritance connecting him to the Holy Grail and sends him on a mission to uncover the truth."
