About this listen

When a King becomes a tyrant then blood will flow and men will die.

In this sequel to To Murder a King, we follow the fortunes of a sword for hire who has to tread the difficult path between two rivals for the throne.

When the Queen of England dies then King Richard suddenly changes. He wreaks vengeance on all those who have slighted him, and only William Strongstaff and John of Gaunt are in a position to curb his excesses.

Beginning in the Baltic, where there is a crusade against the Lithuanian pagans, the novel moves to England, Scotland and Ireland before the owner of the crown of England is decided.

Another great Griff Hosker book! Wouldn't be the same without this Narrator either! I'm hooked and can't wait for my next credit to get the next book

Another great book!

Richard II did not die in London. He was killed in Pontefract castle. Decent story but not history.

Inaccurate Ending

This book has been a great follow on from the last one. The story was again well read giving the characters a voice.
