Greek Fire

Talon, Book 4

In the fourth book of Talon, James Boschert delivers fast-paced adventures, packed with violent confrontations and intrepid heroes up against hard odds.

Imprisoned for brawling in Acre, a coastal city in the Kingdom of Jerusalem, Talon and his longtime friend Max are freed by an old mentor from the Order of the Templars and offered a new mission in the fabled city of Constantinople. There Talon finds that winning the emperor's favor obligates him to go to war to free Byzantine lands from the Seljuk Turks. And beneath the pageantry of the great city, disaffected aristocrats plotting sedition have made a reckless deal with Arab pirates to sell the one weapon the Byzantine Empire has to defend itself, Greek Fire, to an enemy bent upon the empire's destruction.

Talon and Max will find themselves in a fight for their lives - on the sea in perilous battles and in the labyrinthine back streets of Constantinople where Talon must outwit his own kind, the assassins in the pay of a treacherous alliance.

Great Story

I really like the characters in the book. Id rather listen to this book then watch TV. Great story line.

great historical fantasy

the book was enjoyable and it's great to hear about the city of Constantinople and the historical setting like this like the entire series it's more of a historical fantasy than anything else
