Dear Reader, In my historical thriller THE LAST TROUBADOUR--set against the 13th-century Inquisition--a condemned troubadour must rescue a Holy Christian relic from a crusading king. Based on 22 years of research, my epic weaves the history of the Cathar Crusade with the historical origins – and characters – of the Tarot deck. Meet the Ramon Troubadour, the "pop star" of the Middle Ages, as the Fool himself from the Tarot cards. Sainted King Louis plays Emperor. The terrifying Diableteur is "walking Death." The Cathar Dame lives in legend as the tarot Priestess. My historical epic stays true to my roots as a thriller writer (The Game, ISBN 9781601640017, "satirical thriller style that keeps us chuckling."—Booklist). I hope you'll watch the novel trailer or read a chapter at www.kunati.com/troubadour. Please email opinions on the trailer to derekarmstrong@mac.com – you could win one of ten signed books. Thanks for reading. Derek Armstrong |
