I have been waiting for this book, the last in the "The Youngest Templar" trilogy, for eons.
"Keeper of the Grail" the first book by Michael Spradlin was a book I very much enjoyed a while ago. Set in the Holy Lands at the time of the Crusades, the Holy Grail is placed into young Tristan's hands for safe keeping and he must deliver this most sacred of relics back to England. However, Tristan seem to be the target of another Knight Templar other than his master, one who knows who Tristan really is and also knows of his importance of his mission.
A second book, "Trail of Fate" followed where Tristan and his two friends, Robard Hode and Maryam, have managed to make it to France but the evil Sir Hugh still manages to find him and threatens once again to end his mission.
In this final book, "Orphan of Destiny", Tristan along with his two friends have made it safely back to his home in England where his beloved abbey, his home where he had been placed as a baby, has been burned to the ground. The trio makes plans to head to the safety of Sherwood Forest, an area well known to Robard, but once again Sir Hugh interferes and places everyone and everything in jeopardy.
Adventure and intrigue, suspense and secrets make this book one difficult to put down.
