Church retells the Charlemagne of romance rather than history: a king often overshadowed by his paladins. The stories run from the slaying of Lothair and the feud of the brethren to the coming of Roland, the tricks of the enchanter Mawgis, treacherous kings and the great battles against the Saracens.

A clear, readable retelling of the Matter of France for young and older readers. Download the free EPUB.
