From the burning plains of Syria to the filthy backstreets of Paris and London, Brethren is the story of Will Campbell, coming of age in a time of conspiracy, passion, politics and war.

Will longs to become a Knight Templar, but first he must serve as an apprentice to the foul-tempered scholar Everard, a man of dangerous secrets.

Meanwhile, a new star is rising in the east. Amir Baybars has fought his way from slavery to become a fearsome commander, driven by an unquenchable desire to free the Holy Land from the European invaders.

In the epic tradition of Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden and Manda Scott, Brethren brilliantly evokes that extraordinary clash of civilizations known in the West as the Crusades.

Pacy and well-written, with vivid, convincing characters, BRETHREN captures your interest until the last page. I eagerly anticipate the sequel, knowing I will not be disappointed (Alison Weir)
Engaging and enjoyable - Robyn Young brings the tumultuous medieval world to life with pace and flair (Tom Harper, author, Knights Of The Cross)
El Cid meets The Da Vinci Code! Exciting, page-turning fiction

Having read the Brethren trilogy as it was published I was looking forward to revisiting it in this format as I drive for a living and am now fed up with playlists and radio!
I would throughly recommend this Trilogy, Robyn Young's meticulous research of the period adds a degree of authenticity and believable realism to a work of fiction.
The only thing that jarred slightly was Mr Scott's portrayal of William didn't match my read of the character from the books - but that is a small point. His voice and delivery were excellent on all other scores!

Very enjoyable! Great story.

Excellent story woven into the history of the templars. A fascinating period of history which evolves across the trilogy

to much importance for the Muslim fighters. i am Not interested in islamic inner debates. the novel is over all to slow and to Long in relation to the few activities. IT IS more soup Opera than real historic novel. maybe good enough for youth insted of adults.

Story um will.

Great book and story - I loved reading the books. Can't wait to download the 2nd book in the trilogy.

This is my first audiobook so I may be being a bit critical but I cringed at times with the persistent narration errors that were allowed throughout the story-telling. Emphasis on certain words which disconnected them from the sentence they were related to and attached them onto the next sentence where they had no connection, the occasional sentence of speech which came from the wrong character.

Also, I didn't personally enjoy the Scottish accent that the narrator gave to Will Campbell - it seemed a bit too fabricated. While on accents - the characters in the Paris Temple appeared to be from various areas of the UK Midlands which let the book down too. Far better to just narrate for those characters if a French accent isn't your forté.

But loved the story and am looking forward to listening to The Crusade.

Great book, narration lets it down at times.
