Deal Ends: Mon 19th October

His father murdered. His lands stolen. His name erased.To win back his birthright, he will rewrite the rules of war.1305. William Wallace is dead, and Scotland lies broken under the iron heel of Edward I.For young James Douglas, the occupation is personal. With no army and nothing left to lose, he stakes his future on Robert the Bruce’s desperate rebellion.Plunging into a brutal, asymmetric conflict, James realizes that traditional chivalry is a death sentence. To defeat a larger, better-armed enemy, he must out-think, out-maneuver, and out-brutalize them. From the bloody ambush of the Douglas Larder to a daring vertical climb to outflank the enemy at the Pass of Brander, he blazes a trail of tactical terror—earning a legacy that will echo through history as The Black Douglas.A Kingdom’s Cost is a visceral, meticulously detailed epic of 14th-century warfare and the Wars of Scottish Independence. If you crave the gritty realism and tactical depth of Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden, and Simon Scarrow, you won't be able to put down this uncompromising historical tour de force.Book 1 of The Black Douglas Trilogy.
