6 books will be too few...please reconsider...

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2018

Pre-ordered this and thus did not get the Prime Day benefit--
That makes me a little angry...
If you have been waiting for this book for a while (as I was) rest assured that it was worth the wait--but also whets the appetite for more. It seems to have stopped on a half-note, an incomplete part of the adventure--which was a surprise.

The story of William Gold is complex, compelling, and cause to stay up until 2 AM to complete it. But now I am bereft. I don't know very much about the era William Gold lives and fights, but I wager that even those who do may find new illumination and food for thought. The Visconti family is a nest of snakes for certes, and the understory of Gian and his sister is both believable and timeless.
Robert of Geneva continues weaving his poisonous web using the Borc and other malcreants, Hawkwood and Janet reappear, and Nerio is about his own business...
I missed Nerio more than I anticipated. Thankfully Fiore was included----a book w/o Nerio OR Fiore might be readable and enjoyable (I can't imagine a Cameron book that wasn't), but would leave the reader feeling their absense, just as William did...
More backstory appears than the frame of William recounting important events to listeners at the inn...a little off-balance considering the past books...and perhaps evidence that Cameron had written a longer work and decided to break it off earlier than anticipated for reasons of his own.

My only quibble--too short...

If you liked the first three, there's no need to stop now

Christian Cameron doesn't miss a beat in volume four of Chivalry, which traces the semi-historical career of William Gold, an English commoner who battles his way (literally) up the ladder of feudal Europe.

The battle scenes are realistic, the wounds are not ignored, and the chivalry is, like any aspirational code of conduct, honored as much in the breach as in the observance.

Cameron is a superb writer, and insofar as the demands of modern publishing will allow, "Sword of Justice" tries to portray what life was like in 14th century Europe. This book spends most of its time in vibrant Renaissance Italy, and Gold's adventures are spiced with political intrigue, treachery, incest and all one would expect from the less-than-Christian rulers of the time.

I can't wait to read volume five ...

Simply a fantastic story of medieval warfare and politics in the 1360's.

Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2018

Verified Purchase

I love this series and every character major and minor. Cameron brings them all to life. The combat, the chivalry, politics, love and hate, schemes galore. The scenes of fighting are the best description of combat in that time period , late middle 1360s (this book) , that I have ever read. Cameron takes his time setting the stage, explaining the politics, describing the lay of the land and scene... places he has walked and traveled himself. He mixes true historical characters in with just a few fictional ones. William Gold was real, so was the Green Count and so many others. If you want to have great experience and fall in love with a group of characters this is the series. Now I have to wait for book 5.

Historical Fiction At Its Finest

Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2021

Verified Purchase

Cameron once again delivers a thrilling tale, filled with everything one could hope or fear: chivalric prowess and love, murder and betrayal, the creak of harness on the road and the wonder of ancient cities crumbling. William Gold remains one of the most engaging and complex characters in any series I've ever picked up, buoyed by grand historical events, an amazing and almost-but-not-dizzying supporting cast, and the perfect prose.

Mark Kalina

Wonderful historical fiction with realisitc and compelling characters

Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2018

Verified Purchase

Christian Cameron continues to tell historically detailed, and utterly engrossing tales. Cameron's books are not light reading, and the stories they tell are often grim and harsh, and this book is no exception. It's a tale of knighthood and chivalry, but it's a realistic take on the concepts, which can make for very grim reading indeed. But that realism --the sense of real costs, real threats and real consequences-- serves to make the heroes all the more heroic and compelling.

The only possible complaint I have is that I'm going to have to be patient and wait however long it takes to write the next book in this series before I get to read it.

Characters, politics, and action

Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2021

Verified Purchase

As good as the early books in the series, with a somewhat different focus. William Gold takes on more of a leadership role in this one as he matures as a father and captain. Politics and action were fascinating, and the period detail was, as ever, top notch.

Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

An overall excellent series that starts off with one of my all-time favorite books, The Ill-Made Knight. Cameron does a wonderful job bringing together all aspects of medieval culture without lecturing the reader. He creates a rich, compelling world that flows organically within the story.

The novel is filled with intrigue and terrific battles. The end was a bit abrupt, but there's more to come. Can't wait for the next book!

Another great installment

Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2020

Verified Purchase

Another great installment in the fictionalized life of Sir Wiliam Gold. The author blends a deep understanding of history with the ability to tell a great story. His characters are true to their times, yet understandable by us; such keen insight is not always present in writers of historical fiction. High recommended.

William Gold Rides Again

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 11, 2018

Verified Purchase

Sword of Justice is the fourth book in the chivalry series. It charts the ongoing exploits of Sir William Gold during 1367 when Europe stands on the brink war.

We begin to see how William Gold navigates the politics of the period, where political alliances are beginning to rupture. No state is immune: England, France, the Holy Roman Empire, Milan, Genoa, Venice, Constantinople . . . Every mercenary knight for hundreds of miles must sharpen his sword and prepare for battle.

There is an authenticity to the writing that only someone like Christian Cameron can bring. Cameron’s own experimental archaeology, teaching armoured fighting, swordsmanship, visiting battlefields and castles, all find their way into his books. For an historical writer this feels very unique and exciting, as it comes across in his writing. You definitely get to experience, as closely as possible, what it must have been like to be a knight, and not necessarily in a chivalrous or romanticised way.

As ever, the plot of the book is extremely exciting, the story is believable and well told. Full of historical references and research that shines through. There are themes that are explored, the nature of chivalry and ethics of violence.

This is a fabulous series and one that just gets better with each book. If you’re intrigued, I urge you to start at book one: The Ill-Made Knight, I cannot recommend this series enough.

Words of Steel in a Story of Gold!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 15, 2018

Verified Purchase

This fabulous book is the 4th volume, out of 6 according to the author, of the incredible "Chivalry" (Sir William Gold) series.
The historical details concerning this book has been very well researched by the author, the evidence being a greatly defined glossary and a well-drawn map of Sir William's Travels at the beginning of the book.
While at the end of this book you'll notice a superbly explained Historical Note as well as an Author's Note.
Storytelling is once more of a top-notch quality, because the author keeps you spellbound from start to finish with his tremendous Chivalry story, and because all his characters, mostly real and some fictional, come all vividly to life within this tale.
Once again the book starts with a prologue which is set in Calais in the year AD 1381, and its from there that our main character, the real historical figure Sir William Gold, is narrating his tale of chivalrous adventures.
This book is set between AD 1367-1368, and it is divided into 3 parts, in which Sir William will take us along on his life-journey of chivalry from Outremer in part 1, throughout Italy in part 2, and that will end in and around Milan in part 3, while trying to become the perfect chivalric Knight.
What will follow is another marvellous book of chivalry, where we once more will enter a stage of international politics, where loyalty, betrayal, treason, intrigue and murder are common rules, and where Sir William Gold has to find a way to stay alive in this turmoil and remain true to his chivalric principles.
Very much recommended, for this is historical fiction at its very best, and that's why for me this book tells a tale with: "Words of Steel in a Story of Gold"!

Such a good read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 11, 2020

I can only agree with fellow reviewers. As always Christian Cameron delivers a great book with excellent plot, utterly believable characterisations with values and behaviours of the period in which they live.The research and detail are engrossing and are a testament to how seriously he takes his craft.

This is the best way to learn history in my opinion and has over many years eradicated my own extremely negative experiences from my history teachers in the past who did their level best to crush my spirit by making the potentially riveting, soul crushingly dull

Very disappointed...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 30, 2020

Really enjoyed the first two books, third was OK ish, but I gave up on the fourth in despair!

Same old story for so many great writers who keep going too long (Mantel's 3rd Wolf Hall is a good example!)

Story lines become overcomplex and over discriptive and dialogue reduces to 'he said' ' 'she said' etc, the internal perspective and narrative are also reduced and deminished...

Shame, I really ejoyed the first 2.

A damn good read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 13, 2018

Although I get lost at times with the multitude of characters, the fact that the main characters are so good makes it worth the odd bit of confusion, I've read all 4 books in this series, and although, at first, I wasn't sure after book one, I persevered, and I'm glad I did. The characters are fantastic, the story is marvellous, and I will be reading some of Mr Cameron's other novels once this saga has come to an end.
