About this listen

A threat of bankruptcy...

A new land full of hostile enemies...

Will Richard be able to survive and make some money while he's at it?

Richard faces a new world in an effort to stabilise his life. Surrounded by enemies and with his friends including a potentially hostile captive knight, will he navigate his new challenges in an alien land far from home?

Book Three in The Legend of Richard Keynes series follows Richard as he crosses the Irish sea with an invasion fleet. In an atmosphere of fear and prejudice, Richard must find a place for himself and his friends in a confusing world where nothing is as it seems. The expedition will change the face of Ireland forever, and Richard will arrive first as the tip of an Anglo-Norman spear. With Bowman at his side, and his uncle waiting for him at every turn, Richard will have to muster up all of his wits and courage to prevail.

Featuring characters and a story set within real historical events, Dogs of War is a small window into the middle ages, a time when men had to stand up and fight for what they believed in.

Continue your journey through this rich and captivating world to discover Richard's fate.

Clive Hart's "Dogs of War," the third book in The Legend of Richard Keynes series, is a remarkable work of historical fiction, distinguished by its meticulous accuracy and genuine connection to recorded events. The book is far more than a simple adventure; it is a small, vibrant window into the middle ages, built upon the solid foundation of historical fact.

Richard's journey is a fictional lens through which we witness a pivotal moment in history: the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland. Hart masterfully places his characters directly into the heart of this documented expedition, allowing us to experience the fear, prejudice, and political intrigue of a period that forever changed the face of the island. The tension of Richard arriving as "the tip of an Anglo-Norman spear" feels incredibly real, grounded in the documented movements and motives of the time.

This isn't just a story about survival; it's an exploration of human experience within the grand tapestry of history. The book's compelling narrative, rich characters, and unwavering commitment to its historical setting make it an outstanding listen. With its authentic backdrop and dramatic, high-stakes plot, "Dogs of War" would be a fantastic basis for a historically faithful streaming series.
