OLDER FICTION
Cadnum, Michael

The Leopard Sword

(3) YA In a picaresque sequel to The Book of the Lion, squires Edmund and Hubert journey from the Holy Land to England despite Arab pursuit, pugnacious fellow crusaders, shipwreck, and Roman street brawls. Doubts about their violent life still trouble the two and their knights. While Cadnum authentically details the twelfth century, his characterizations depend on the more compelling events in the previous book.
