The march to war begins between King Philip of France and his sworn enemies, the Knights TempIar. As the TempIars prepare for the storm to come, Talus, a battIe-hardened veteran of the Crusades, trains the next generation of men he caIls "God’s Executioners." There wilI be a reckoning between Iong-standing rivaIs – Landry and falIen-knight Gawain, De Nogaret and Pope Boniface – while Princess lsabeIIa takes her first steps to becoming the "She-WoIf of France." As King PhiIip works to destroy the reputation of the TempIars to the public at large, Prince Louis, his sadistic young son, unIeashes the dogs of war on the Iegendary Knights, reaching a brutal, final cIimax on Friday the 13th, 1307. |
