Rebellion is the latest book by author Richard Cullen, and it has been published via Boldwood Books.
As war approaches, the lion will roar…
1213AD.
King Richard the Lionheart is dead, and his brother, John Lackland, sits uneasily upon the throne of England.
Across the sea, Prince Louis, heir to the powerful King Philip Augustus of France, looks to King John’s crown with a covetous eye.
But King John must be wary of rebellion, as well as invasion, for even his own barons would see their king unseated, and the French pretender put in his place.
Thrust amid this tumult is young Estienne Wace, orphan squire to Earl William Marshal – the greatest knight to ever serve the kings of England, and one of the few men who still holds faith in King John’s rule.
Raised by Marshal as his ward, Estienne must prove himself worthy of his adopted father’s name, but acceptance may be the least of his troubles. War is looming, as usurpers emerge from every quarter, determined to steal England’s crown from its most wretched king.
Rebellion is the first book in a new series. Normally it’s not a genre I read much of, but I was intrigued by the blurb. I’m so glad I read it as I really enjoyed it will definitely be reading the next book in the series.
If you love history then this book is everything you want to read. Richard paints a vivid and unflinching picture of the period. His writing draws you in from the very first page, catapulting you in to King John’s rein. Such is Richard’s talent at writing historical fiction, you feel as if it’s a first hand account of someone who was there and lived it.
