The Hoodsman - Hunting Kings by Skye Smith PDF Summary

Book Description: Cover Flap This is the second in a series of historical novels about an English bowman, and the brotherhood of English archers that became the core of the resistance movement against the enslavement of the English by the psycho ruling elite of Normandy. It picks up exactly where the first novel, Killing Kings, left off. In this novel our bowman, Raynar, has survived the Battle of Stamford, and is travelling south with Hereward and the Northern Army, but he gets lost and ends up in the middle of the Battle of Hastings Road in 1066. He tries to shorten the battle by hunting Duke William across the madness of the battlefield. Thirty four years later, in 1100, he again finds himself hunting a would-be-king. This time he is hunting William the Conqueror's son Henry, across the madness of the coronation celebration. About the Author Skye Smith is my pen name. My ancestors were miners and shepherds near Castleton in the Peaks District of Derbyshire. I have been told by some readers that this series reminds them of Bernard Cornwell’s historical novels, and have always been delighted by the comparison. This is the second of my Hoodsman series of books, and you should read the first “Killing Kings” before you read this book. All of the books contain two timelines linked by characters and places. The “current” story is set in the era of King Henry I in the 1100’s, while the longer “flashback” story is set in the era of King William I after 1066. I have self-published twelve “The Hoodsman” historical-adventure novels and one Companion reference book for the series: # - SubTitle William I Timeline Henry I Timeline 1.
