Sir Godfrey Tallboys had joined an ill-fated crusade against the Moors in Spain. It was an adventure that left him languishing in cruel captivity, facing slow and certain death at the hands of the Moorish foes. The one day he returned to England, to his home at Knight's Acre, to his wife and three sons. At his side, on that day, was thw woman who had saved his life - a beautiful, fiery young girl called Tana.... His wife Sybilla knew she must honor Sir Godfrey's debt to this wild, mysterious girl - must find a place for Tana in the life of Knight's Acre. But the uneasy peace established between them was destined to shatter - in treachery, grief, and death.
And Sir Godfrey, weary and torn by the force of two opposing loves, was destined to turn once more to his calling as a knight.... He would ride off, in time, on his last adventure - in the bitter wars between the houses of Lancaster and York. And from Knight's Acre a new generation of Tallboys would arise, to seek other destinies in worlds far different from the one Sir Godfrey chose to serve.... This colorful sequel to Knight's Acre is a magnificent tale in its own right. |
