Publisher Description
When an invading army crosses the border… only hope stands between victory and defeat.
Enter Dame Beverly Fitzwilliam, who has trained for this moment since she first held a sword. From her relentless pursuit of knighthood to the day she single-handedly saves the king's life and earns her spurs, she has searched for someone worthy of her fealty.
By swearing to protect the life of a mysterious royal heir, she undertakes an adventure that will have her travelling across the kingdom fighting desperate battles, all the while surrounded by powerful enemies who conspire to bring down the crown.
Her destiny will be determined in a monumental clash of forces, where success can save the kingdom, but failure means certain death.
Sword of the Crown is an action-packed medieval adventure that is the second book in the Heir to the Crown series but can be read without reading book one. If you like epic battle scenes, dangerous enemies and mysterious prophecies, then you will love Paul J Bennett's tale of a knight who will not submit.

Customer Reviews
Interesting tale, not well-written
I’ve read two of the books in the series and while the author has an interesting tale to tell, the writing is fairly unsophisticated, such that I’ve wondered if these are in the YA genre. Still, they’ve been an easy read and kept me entertained. My greatest critique is the desperate need for careful editing. The writing is so full of missing and incorrect punctuation, wrong word choices (like ‘their’ when the correct word in context is ‘they’re,’ for example), incomplete sentences, and a few places where the information doesn’t match up. Early on I wondered if some of the run-on was simply stylistic, but it became apparent that it’s all part of a larger whole of poorly edited text. I’m not generally so picky about such things, but in this instance there is enough of it that for me it becomes disruptive to the reading.
