In the service of the powerful
The third installment of the historical series Knights of Vřesov
Wolfram Katzinger of Olšová, a former Johannite knight, breaks with the Johannite Order. But is it possible to leave the order without losing honour? Moreover, Wolfram considers the possibility of entering the service of King John of Luxembourg, weakened by the death of his father and oppressed by a part of the Bohemian nobility led by Henry of Lipá. Benes of Vřesov also leaves his services after a disagreement with his fief lord Peter of Rožmberk and tries to rebuild his pillaged and burned native fortress Vřesov, although he was convinced that he no longer had any feelings for it.
In the novel, friends will meet friends, enemies will meet enemies. But in those days, these notions changed quite quickly, and someone who was a friend and ally yesterday may be on the opposite side the next day. And the important thing is to have a well-sharpened sword, and sometimes it is also useful when someone has your back.
"A well-written historical novel. I look forward to the next installment of this story.: )"
