Review & Description
In 12th century England, life can be precarious. For Lord William Marleigh, the smooth operation and protection of Dansford are only half of his problems. The other half is seeing that his son, Stephen, settles down and marries a girl of proper standing. Appearances are everything. Your entire way of life, including your occupation, the person you marry, and your social class; are handed down from your parents. But when a local merchant unwittingly becomes a hero during a fierce attack, his life and the lives of several others are about to be turned upside down. He is thrust into a foreign world of nobility and manners where one wrong slip of the tongue could be the death of him. Defender Of The Realm is an exciting and often humorous ride through England of old that breaks down the social barriers of class distinction by examining what truly makes one noble. Read more
