Mercenaries: The epic adventure of a true band of brothers (Conquest Book 1)

Six brothers, trained since birth to become great warriors, prepare to experience their first taste of battle... 1033, the Norman/French border. The sons of Tancred de Hautville are following in their father's footsteps. As knights, they have but one true purpose: to fight. But denied service with their duke, they are forced to take employment as mercenaries: their unequalled battle skills are for hire to the highest bidder. Victory and defeat, betrayal and revenge combine as the desperation to rule the wealthy Norman lands becomes an intense battle, testing even the strongest of ties. 1033, the Norman/French border.

Victory and defeat, betrayal and revenge combine as the desperation to rule becomes an intense battle, testing even the strongest of ties. But through it all shines the loyalty of blood that binds families - and warriors - together. & P & Six brothers, trained since birth to become great warriors, prepare to experience their first taste of battle ... & /p & & p & 1033, the Norman/French border.
