The Templar Trilogy: Three Novels by Helena P. Schrader
The Cypriot Knight In this, the first novel of Helena P. Schrader's Templar Trilogy, two young people with pasts they would rather forget meet by chance on Cyprus in the mid-13th Century. They have been shaped by the Templars and the Cathars, the Crusades and the Inquisition. This is their story. It is a story of shaken faith, lost illusions, and new found hope.
In this, the second novel of the trilogy, the son of Geoffrey and Eleanor (see the Cypriot Knight) joins the Knights Templar to defend the Holy Land. He embarks on a journey of discovery which takes him not only to Christian Palestine but to the depths of his own soul. As a Templar, Commander, and finally Companion to Master de Beaujeu, he is tested in the siege of Acre and Fall of Tripoli and Acre. Confronted with his own failure, he is compelled to redefine himself, his beliefs and his goals. Sir Jean of Acre
The English Templar This, the third and last novel in the trilogy, describes the destruction of the Knights Templar by Philip IV of France and Pope Clement V. It is also the story of one man's struggle for his own soul. It is a novel about the battle for good and evil, love and hate which takes place - always and again - in human hearts.
