4-6Youngest Templar series.
Abbey-raised orphan Tristan joins crusading Templar Knights bound for the Holy Land. After Acre falls to siege, Tristan is entrusted with the Templars' greatest treasure: the Holy Grail. Joined by a king's archer and a girl assassin, Tristan must keep the Grail from his nemesis, Sir Hugh. Uneven in tone and narration, the book nonetheless contains enough adventure to hold readers' interest.
