Ever watch the collapse of an Empire?
Michael did, and took part in it.
The Schoonover Collection: Gentle Infidel tells the story of a Venetian boy impressed into military service in the elite Janissary corps of the Grand Turk in the time leading up to the overthrow of the last capital of the Roman Empire. During the fall of Constantinople the young warrior, hardened by years of training and trials of heartache, learns his own history hidden from him for a decade and must use his skills and conscience to find his own path.
Publisher George Scott is Schoonover’s great-nephew, and was so inspired by these books he was determined to see them back in print. “There’s a whole new audience for these wonderful stories. Anyone who likes adventure, romance, and political and religious history will love these books.”
The Schoonover Collection: Queen’s Cross is the story of Isabella of Castile, Spain’s greatest monarch, whose dedication to her people and her religion led to establishing Christian Europe as a powerful political force in the medieval world. The epic re-conquest of Grenada from the Moors in 1492 is one of the most important events of European history and even today is referenced by Islamic leaders in their struggles against the West.
These are the first two out of nine I plan to publish, in unabridged, newly designed edtions.
I have a limited number of copies for reivew, so let me know if you are interested in reading and publishing your review. Contact me at FCPub-Contact at knology.net.
