5.0 out of 5 stars
The world of William Rufus,
By
This review is from: The wolf time (Hardcover)
George Shipway (1908-82) was an excellent British historical novelist, whose strengths include a strong realism, and whose cavalry background made him well qualified to write about military matters. Not for Mr. Shipway the romance of chivalry; the nasty, brutish and short side of life in the Middle Ages is presented plainly.
"The Paladin" is second part of the story of Walter Tirel (reputed killer of William Rufus), the first being The Paladin. The author never makes the mistake of imputing modern ethics or motives to his characters, all of whom seemed completely believable; and I found the book most enjoyable. |
