Where Devils Tread (Lions & Devils Book 3)

Where Devils Tread brings thrilling action to a dramatic conclusion in Jason Born's rousing medieval series, Lions & Devils. After a long pause in the brutal fighting between the Christian defenders of Europe and her Islamic invaders, war draws inexorably near.

729 A.D. In the south, Munnuza, a loyal soldier of the Caliphate has committed not one, but two acts which his Arab masters in Cordoba view as treasonous. Despite efforts at peace, he and his bride suddenly understand what it means to challenge the conquering armies of Wali Rahman. Duke Eudo of Aquitaine, desperately trying to pass down to his elder son a kingdom, finds himself again in conflict with the wali, who is bent on avenging the monstrous defeat of his men at Toulouse at the hands of the duke. To the far north, Charles, Hammer of the Franks, schemes and battles with whomever he must to take full advantage of the precarious situation of his chief rival, Eudo.

A brilliant tale, Where Devils Tread, is an epic look at the opening salvos in a war for man's heart that rages still today. Greed, bloodlust, and avarice flourish, but it is the unbounded theme of redemption that shines forth. The legacies of many hang in the balance, but only one man will be left to rule.
