Storm of War
Storm of War: The Crusaders Chronicles, #1 | Bryan Saye
1 post | 1 read
Constantinople, 1097.
As an insignificant thief in the underbelly of Constantinople, Daniel wants to matter, to be known. After a botched job forces him to flee the city, he is swept up among the thousands of crusaders as they depart for the Holy Land on their mission to retake Jerusalem.
Their first obstacle: Nicaea, an impenetrable city of stone walls and high towers, impervious to assault and immune to siege.
Now a fledgling servant to a gruff Scottish knight, Daniel struggles to fit in among Saracens and Crusaders, princes and priests. Will he find his worth as he learns to live in this new world of blood and death, or will he succumb to the storm of war?

This story immerses the reader fully into a dramatic portion of history, and does it well. You feel like you are there in the middle of everything.

There is a lot of pain and heartache here. I enjoyed watching Daniel begin to mature. He's got a ways to go, looking forward to more in series. He is a great example of circumstances causing poor choices, but then when given half an opportunity, making a better choice.
