Blood Bound - E-book - ePub

Seven Knights are selected by their leader to stay behind and defend a mountain pass from an advancing horde of Saracen warriors.  They are outnumbered, they are outclassed and know they're going to die. A Knight's code is moral, their duty just.  They will never retreat.  They will never surrender. Richard, their chosen leader can't accept the deaths of such good men.  When their squires and pages double back from the retreat to die with them, Richard knows he must buy time to find a way for them to survive.  With the odds stacked against them, the only thing they can turn to advantage is the terrain.  The enemy can't approach en mass through the narrow slotted canyon pass where the Knights choose to make their final stand.
Richard needs all of his cunning and wile, and the skilled arms of his trained companions to hold back the Saracen horde long enough for the army to escape.  And he has a secret weapon, a mighty warrior named Ralf, a brigand turned penitent who seeks solace and penance washed in the blood of his enemies. This story is non stop action from the moment it starts, full of betrayal, love and lust for battle.
Seven men who took an oath to defend each other and vow to protect the young under their care must face death and sacrifice so that others might live.
