With captivating detail and uncanny insight, Katia Fox transports us to the dazzlingly lavish royal courts of twelfth century England, where the kingdom’s destiny lies in the hands of an extraordinary knight.
Young Guillaume, fourth son of a minor baron, has passionate but unlikely dreams of becoming one of the king’s knights. But when he rescues the queen from a rebel attack, she gratefully appoints him to be the sword-fighting instructor to the prince, securing his place at court. Soon, Guillaume becomes one of the most influential men in England—but as his star rises, so does the number of enemies who seek his downfall. Before long, a sinister plot is hatched to destroy him…Guillaume must outsmart his aggressors, or risk losing everything.
The Golden Throne is the magnificent conclusion to Katia Fox’s family trilogy set against the richly textured historical tapestry of the High Middle Ages.
