Lion Hearts

THEY'RE TOLD TO FIGHT FOR THEIR KING. BUT IN BATTLE, THEY FIGHT FOR THEIR BROTHERS. Three years after the Essex Dogs survived the Siege of Calais, the Black Death has torn through Europe, leaving the Dogs scattered. Millstone and Thorp enlist themselves on a deadly mission to escort a princess to Castille. Romford, basking in new riches, finds himself living as a squire in the glamorous court of King Edward III. Loveday, whose businesses have been destroyed by the plague, is desperate to avoid returning to the life he vowed to abandon: fighting. But you can't run from what's in your blood. When one of their own is threatened, the Essex Dogs must fight again and the war that lasts one hundred years will end - for one of them at least... The thrilling, unmissable conclusion to the Essex Dogs trilogy by Sunday Times bestselling historian, Dan Jones. Praise for THE ESSEX DOGS trilogy 'Wolves of Winter is a horrible joy to read: horrible because of the vivid, random bloodshed, and a joy because of the easy authenticity of his prose... If you've ever enjoyed a Ridley Scott film, go and buy this book!' ALICE WINN 'Dan Jones' fiction rings with the authority of his scholarly history.' PHILIPPA GREGORY 'A book that draws you in page by page. The way Dan Jones writes enemies reminds me of Cornwell at his best, turning up tension click by click.' CONN IGGULDEN 'This is the Hundred Years' War as directed by Oliver Stone with a historian's eye for detail.' ELODIE HARPER 'Battle-bloody, brutal and perfectly pitched.' DAILY MAIL
