Product Review

Arrows fly, swords clash, nobles and church men are gulled out of their coins, and the French and Venetians are successfully blamed for things they did not do. This is the first book in Martin Archer's exciting and action-packed saga of Cornwall's Company of Archers at the dawn of Britain’s military supremacy and the beginning of its great merchant companies. It is an enjoyable and sometimes witty read that sticks pins into the church and nobility along the way.

The on-going saga of the Company of Archers is set in dangerous and gritty feudal England during a time when there was great upheaval in Britain as the barons rose against the king, the Saracens were lashing out against the Christians for breaking a truce, and Islamic pirates from the Barbary Coast were fighting for control of the Mediterranean.

This is British and English historical fiction at its action-packed best. It will appeal to readers who enjoy books such as The Game of Thrones and authors such as Bernard Cornwell, Jeffrey Archer, C.S. Forester, Griff Hosker, Peter Darman, and Jerry Auteri.

This exciting novel is not politically correct. It is, however, a very good read.

The next book in the continuing saga is "The Archers' Castle." It is followed by "The Archers' Return" and more exciting tales as this great Medieval Times saga continues. The entire first six books of the saga are collected in one great Amazon eBook as "The Archers' Story." The next four novels after that are collected in "The Archers' Story: Part II." And there are even more. They will delight the fans of Bernard Cornwell, Jerry Auteri, C.S. Forester's Hornblower, and George MacDonald Fraser's Flashman.
