The Last Marshal

The Last Marshal: The Marshal Jean Lannes Saga Book Three

A hero at the height of an empire. A man at the end of his strength. A death that changes Napoleon forever.

Spring 1809: As Napoleon pushes deeper into Austria, Marshal Jean Lannes returns from the horrors of Spain a shattered man. Haunted by Zaragoza and broken by grief, he marches toward one last campaign—one that will test his courage, his loyalty, and his friendship with the Emperor more than any battle before.

On the Danube's deadly currents, everything unravels.
 

Pontoon bridges collapse. The river swallows entire regiments. Austrian guns hammer the French shore. And amid the smoke, Lannes fights with a fury that terrifies even Napoleon himself.

At Aspern–Essling, destiny closes its fist.

Epic, intimate, and devastating, The Last Marshal is the concluding volume of the Marshal Lannes Saga — a trilogy of friendship, revolution, and the terrible price of imperial glory.

Fans of Bernard Cornwell, Ken Follett, and Hilary Mantel will find in these pages the raw humanity and tragic grandeur of history's greatest battles — and one of its greatest friendships.
