Beskrivning

‘Tantum religio potuit suadere malrum!’

Only religion can lead to such evil. Such is Merlin”s anguished cry as he witnesses the destruction of Jerusalem.
The year is 1099.As Merlin”s past life interweaves with this one and people from that life mix with new ones, his mission emerges: to accompany Wilda to the Holy Land to protect her from the many dangers of the war that is known in our times as the First Crusade.
He is forced to return for the Second Crusade. And the third.
He loves the people he is protecting.
He hates the wars and the religions that cause them.
And the men of the church want him dead.

Recensioner

NTK:
Once more a unique perspective on the famous Merlin, this time in the time of the Crusades. I love his (very sceptical) perspective on this part of history, and feel deeply with him as he grows so tired of his endless and often seemingly pointless mission. Looking forward to the next volume, as soon as I get hold of it!

TC:
Med korta kapitel och spännande handling får vi en historisk roman som känns realistisk även om Merlin använder magi vid några tillfällen.

ME:
Har just läst ut The Wrathful Traveller. Det var väldigt intressant att läsa om korstågen, sedda från ett helt annat perspektiv än från skolans historieundervisning. …[RG] är en god berättare! Lärde mig en massa nya engelska ord. Dessutom gillade jag bokens grundtema – religioner är roten till allt ont!
