HISTORICAL FICTION CENTRAL: THE TEMPLAR KNIGHT!

JAN GUILLOU

Exiled to the Holy Land for two decades, Arn Magnusson has risen in the ranks of the Knights Templar, serving as master of the order’s Gaza fortress. Among the last bastion of God’s holy warriors determined to save Jerusalem from the Muslims, Arn has cultivated a shrewd understanding of his enemy. Known as Al-Ghouti among the Saracens — Saladin and his Muslim followers — he is renowned as a man of compassion, strength and faith.

When an accident of fate brings together Arn and Saladin, a friendship is forged that will alter the course of the Templar knight’s life, and the history of Jerusalem itself.
