Fortunes of France by Merle, Robert
ISBN: 9781782271246 PUBLISHER: Pushkin Press FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 576 PUBLICATION DATE: 3.09.2015 DIMENSIONS: 19.8 x 12.9 x 3.6 centimetres 1 pounds
DESCRIPTION: Montpellier in 1566-only fools walk the streets at night unarmed, while a profession of faith in the wrong company can lead to a knife in the back. Not even this proud city of philosophers is safe from the menaces that endanger the peace of France. The city militia are struggling to contend with the lawlessness and religious hatred that threaten to tear the whole country in two. Now an adult, Pierre de Siorac must travel south on dangerous roads to the great university town, accompanied by his strapping but naive brother Samson and the crafty Miroul. Well-armoured, with swords and pistols at their belts, the trio are confident of repelling any bandits who cross their path, but their new life away from the safety of their Perigord home will bring with it many new dangers and delights. Continuing the colourful story that began The Brethren, City of Wisdom and Blood is the second book in the sweeping saga, Fortunes of France. The Brethren is the first volume in the epic historical drama Fortunes of France-a lusty, exhilarating blend of adventure and romance set against the backdrop of a critical period in European history. 'Swashbuckling historical fiction...For all its philosophical depth (The Brethren) is a hugely entertaining romp. ..The comparisons with Dumas seem both natural and deserved and the next 12 instalments (are) a thrilling prospect' Christobel Kent, Guardian 'A vivid novel by France's modern Dumas...(there is)
