Crécy: The Age of the Archer
I have penned a new series following the life of Sir John Hawkwood, an English mercenary from the 14th century.
I came across the character during my research and I found him and the period extremely fascinating and the book, Crécy: The Age of the Archer , evolved from there. Below is a link to a short video where I chat about how the book came about.

The great thing about self publishing is that you can amend errors almost instantly! Thanks for that! The Archer's Crusade on the other hand is a Lume book. The fourth instalment is with them now. I would give you the title but I am not sure they have decided on one yet. It should be out in August and I will be writing the final instalment over the next few months.
Hi Griff:Man at Arms
