This book was one of the best fantasy books I have ever read. I can’t wait for the rest of the books to come out, as I’m sure they’ll be just as good-and hopefully even better- than this one!

I recommend this book for people that like adventure. The book is very interesting. It is also one of the best fantasy I have read.

Knights and great battles have made for good reading for many years. The Youngest Templar is no exception.
In a truly romantic and creative spin on the stories of the Great Crusades and King Richard the Lionheart, Youngest Templar introduces you to fresh new characters that you thought you knew from somewhere else, but were not quite right.
Good historical detail of the Templars and the quest are infused with page turning action and hold your breath moments of suspense.
The only thing I had to say was wow, when does the next book come out?!
I may have to read it again before I move on to the next in series. You will not be dissapointed in The Youngest Templar’

I really didn’t like it very much.
I mean, I usually dont even go for
these kind of books,
And when I finally read it,
I had to force myself to turn the page.
I was slightly disappointed.
But I asked someone I knew
If they liked it,
And they said that it was
The best book that
they have ever read!
So, I guess some books just aren’t
for certain people.
I just didn’t connect to any of the characters
and almost fell asleep at one part in the book,
but a lot of people I asked said they
loved the book, so I guess its a hit or miss.

Ive read the book a long time ago, but I liked it a little. Some parts could have been improved, but it was fairly good.

What do you mean by “these kinds of books”?
Also, I don’t think Miley Cyrus reads this blog, but let’s be more polite anyway.

I think that The Youngest Templar Keeper of the Grail is a very cool book about the crusades. It has action and assassinations and a skirmish almost always happening. It also has very life like characters who make you think you are in the moment. I recommend this book to anyone that likes medieval knights and sieges.

I recommend the second book in the series to everyone. The Youngest Templar, Grail of Fate, is a really good book to read. It’s about Tristan journey home after being shipwrecked on a boat with Robard and Maryam. During the story Tristan gets into an argument with the king of France, but eventually he makes his way to Calais.
