Originally released to strong reader response, Crusader’s
Path has been revitalized for today’s audience with a powerful new look and
expanded availability. Now offered in eBook, paperback, hardcover, and
audiobook—including Amazon’s immersive virtual voice format—this sweeping
historical adventure returns with fresh clarity in both design and discovery.
Set during the First Crusade, the novel invites readers on a gripping journey
of faith, destiny, and resilience.
A Redemptive Crusade. A Test of Faith. A Reckoning with
the Past.
Marching eastward under Duke Robert of Normandy, Etienne carries the weight of his sins like a stone upon his soul. Every step toward Jerusalem is a trial. Each battle tests his worth. The scorching desert erodes his strength while relentless hunger and the cries of the dying grind away at his resolve. Guilt festers beneath the surface. Doubt gnaws at him.
Treachery and disease lurk in the shadows. Battle looms ever closer. When Etienne makes a desperate vow to serve the Church if survival grants him another chance, his faith and convictions are tested in ways he never imagined.
Through blood-soaked battlefields and the unforgiving desert, salvation remains as distant as the Holy City itself. When faced with the ultimate test, will conviction be enough? Or will the weight of his past drag him into darkness?
