The Tavern Knight

by Raphael Sabatini Action-Adventure with a touch of historical romance by a master storyteller. "He whom they called the Tavern Knight laughed an evil laugh--such a laugh as the pious might conceive on the lips of Satan." Thus begins Sabatini's masterful romance of the life of a Tavern King--a story of swashbuckling adventure and murderous action. Unusually for Sabatini, he has turned to English history to provide the backdrop for this thrilling tale. Another romantic action thriller by the author of CAPTAIN BLOOD.
