Montpellier in 1566 - only fools walk the pavements during the night unarmed while a profession of beliefs in the incorrect company can lead to a blade in the trunk. Not even this pleased city of philosophers is safe from the menaces that endanger the calmness of France. The city militia are attempting to contend with the lawlessness and religious hatred that threaten to rip the complete country in two. Now a grown-up, Pierre de Siorac must travel south on dangerous highways to the fantastic university town, combined with his strapping but naive sibling, Samson, and the crafty Miroul. Well armoured, with swords and pistols at their belts, the trio are comfortable of repelling any bandits who mix their path, but their new life from the safety with their Perigord home provides with it many new dangers and delights. Continuing the colourful history that started in The Brethren, City of Wisdom and Bloodstream is the second publication in the sweeping saga Fortunes of France. The Brethren is the first quantity in the epic historical drama Fortunes of France - a lusty, exhilarating mixture of adventure and romance set against the setting of a critical period in Western history.
