Description
The King's Assassin: A Riveting Historical Audiobook
Introduction
Step back in time to the year AD 1215, a crucial period in history marked by the signing of Magna Carta, as well as the legendary battle of Robin Hood. In Angus Donald's captivating historical audiobook, 'The King's Assassin', readers are transported to a world where the yoke of tyranny weighs heavily on the people, and rebellion is brewing across the land. Join Robin Hood, now Earl of Locksley, and his loyal companion, Sir Alan Dale, as they navigate the treacherous political landscape of medieval England.
A Tale of Oppression and Rebellion
King John, hungry for power and eager to reclaim his ancestral lands in Europe, resorts to bleeding the peasantry and the nobles dry of their wealth. Among those affected by his avarice is the former outlaw Robin Hood, now the Earl of Locksley, who finds himself caught in a deadly game of politics.
Meanwhile, rebellion against the tyrant king simmers throughout the country, and Robin Hood and his band of merry men are reluctantly drawn into the war against the French in Flanders. Little do they know, however, that a sinister plan has been set in motion - a plan to assassinate the King.
The Roar of Revolution
As England descends into bloody civil war, Robin Hood and Sir Alan Dale are confronted with an impossible choice: whom can they trust? Loyalties are tested, alliances are forged and shattered, and the once-peaceful realm is thrown into chaos. Magna Carta, the great symbol of hope for justice and freedom, hangs precariously in the balance - but first, the King must be made to submit to the will of his people.
