    About this audiobook

    Swedish author Jan Guillou follows up the highly acclaimed The Road to Jerusalem with the second book in his Knights Templar trilogy.

    The Knight Templar follows Arn's adventures in the Holy Land, where he discovers that the infidel Saracens aren't as brutish and uncivilized as he had been led to believe, and that in fact there is another, darker side to the teaching of the Cistercians.

    • 4/5
      The story is compelling. The narrator good, but slow.. Listen at speed 1.2x and it's perfect
    • 5/5
      Brilliant. Gildart Jackson audio interpretation is impeccable. He has no problem with Swedish or Frankish names or words. He enunciated every word so beautifully that it was a joy listening to him as he told the story so vividly.
    • 5/5
      First review after many books on the crusades.
      My opinion thus far on the series but especially this particular book.... Epic!
    • 4/5
