Condottiere

Published on Sunday 27th August 2023 by Griff Hosker

My next Sir John Hawkwood book will be published on 7th September 2023.

Sir John Hawkwood is not getting any younger but he is now the supreme condottiero, not only in Italy but the whole of Europe. When the two rival popes try to manipulate him he has to use new skills to outwit them. He finds himself facing almost insurmountable odds when he is attacked by the Milanese and Veronese. He faces defeat at Castagnaro but his mind is as sharp as ever. Sir John Hawkwood shows his rivals why he is the best.

The series is, sadly, drawing to a close.  Sir John is in his seventies and time catches up with us all in the end. There will be another book in the series and I plan on writing that in early 2024.
