A propos du livre

Revue de presse

An energetic, fun adventure that puts the "musk" back in "musketeer." Guaranteed to increase household swashbuckling by 100%. (Library Journal)

Don't hesitate to buy this if you love a great hero and story . . . What a voice! What story-telling brio! If you love Dumas, or Game of Thrones or The False Prince this is the swashbuckling fantasy for you. (Amanda Craig, author of Hearts And Minds)

One hell of a good book (Conn Iggulden)

Fantastic from the first sentence to the last. Combining old-school swashbuckling action with contemporary characters and a good dose of grit, these books are the rarest of things, great rollicking fun combined with an emotional punch . . . Sebastien, write faster! (John Gwynne, Author of the Faithful and the Fallen)

High energy, highly unique, swashbuckling-cop-epic-noir story. Buy it. BUY IT NOW. (Sam Sykes, author of The City Stained Red)

Knight's Shadow is an excellent and engaging story, one of the best books I've read in a long time. 10/10 (Fantasy-Faction)

Excels at telling a fun, exciting adventure. . . Knight's Shadow is a strong tale in its own right (Fanboy Comics)

It's easy to love de Castell's work. Two books in and "Greatcoats" still remains approachable and readable fantasy at its finest (Upcoming4.me)

Sebastien De Castell manages to wring every heart wrenching moment and ounce of anticipation from every scene, his fight scenes contain dark humour, explosive action and a great awareness of the art of sword fighting, all of which has you hanging on the edge of every page. . . . This really is an exceptional book and series (Parmenion Books)

Everything that de Castell did well in the first book - the action, the adventure, the high drama, the zinging character interaction and dialogue - is taken to a fresh level here . . . Knight's Shadow raises its own bar . . . This story is bigger, darker and full of more violence than its predecessor (Over the Effing Rainbow)

Présentation de l'éditeur

'One hell of a good book' Conn Iggulden

The Greatcoats have found the heir to the throne . . . but now they must keep her alive, against all the odds.

Falcio Val Mond has completed the final task given to him by the late King Paelis: he has found the King's Charoites (well, one at least). But his task isn't over, and now he, Kest and Brasti must protect the girl from those her want her dead.

That would be simple enough, if it weren't for the renegade Knights and legendary Dashini assassins, getting in their way, not to mention the Dukes, who are desperate to hold on to their power at any cost, or Trin, the merciless daughter of the ruthless Duke of Rijou and the cruel Duchess of Hervor, who is determined to be Queen of Tristia. Of course, the fact that the heir to the throne is thirteen years old doesn't help, nor the fact that every day brings Falcio closer to dying from the poison running through his veins.

And then there is the Greatcoats Lament . . .
