Overview

Acre, at the close of the 13th century.  The last remaining Crusader stronghold, where the ideals of a Kingdom of Heaven -- forged by saints and zealots nearly two hundred years ago -- now hang by the slenderest of threads.  It is a city menaced by Saracen warlords; a city coveted by the Mameluke Sultan of Egypt.  It is a city of infidels and sinners, lepers and thieves, seemingly forsaken by God, himself. Into this bloody crucible comes Tancred of Antioch, a battle-scarred giant of a man known to friend and foe alike as the White Lion.  In the streets of Acre, he plies his trade as a sword-for-hire, a merchant of death, always keeping his true allegiances cloaked in mystery.  But, when his friend, the gentle and learned apothecary Jawan Khandaq, is murdered and killers alight upon him, as well, the White Lion goes on the hunt. Now, from the alleys of the Venetian Quarter to the crypts of the Leper King, Tancred of Antioch will reap a bloody harvest among his enemies.  And those who seek to chain him, to exploit him, to kill him will learn the truth at the point of his sword: Tancred of Antioch, the White Lion, is not a man to be trifled with. In The White Lion, Scott Oden does what he does best -- he channels the spirit of Robert E.
Howard into a tale of treachery and double-cross; a tale set against the last days of the Crusades! "Oden's action scenes are rich with crackling vitality and his pacing is top-notch. One of the best adventure writers working today." -- Howard Andrew Jones, author of The Ringsworn Trilogy.
