WINNER of BOOK EXCELLENCE AWARD 2017 for BIOGRAPHYWINNER READERS' FAVORITE BOOK AWARDS 2017 for CHRISTIAN HISTORICAL FICTIONWINNER PINNACLE BOOK AWARD 2016 for BIOGRAPHICAL FICTIONWINNER FEATHERED QUILL BOOK AWARD 2017 for SPIRITUAL/RELIGIOUS FICTIONBalian has survived the devastating defeat of the Christian army on the Horns of Hattin, and walked away a free man after the surrender of Jerusalem, but he is baron of nothing in a kingdom that no longer exists. Haunted by the tens of thousands of Christians now enslaved by the Saracens, he is determined to regain what has been lost. The arrival of a vast crusading army under the soon-to-be-legendary Richard the Lionheart offers hope -- but also conflict, as natives and crusaders clash and French and English quarrel. This is Part III of a biographical novel about Balian d'Ibelin. The first two books in the series, Knight of Jerusalem and Defender of Jerusalem, were both BRAG Medallion honorees. Defender of Jerusalem won the 2016 Chaucer Award for Historical Fiction set in the Middle Ages and was also awarded the Silver (second place) for Spiritual/Religious Fiction in the 2016 Feathered Quill Book Awards. It was a finalist for the 2016 M.M. Bennetts Award for Historical Fiction.
