What hope does an army of children have against the might of the Mamluks? Brother Foulques de Villaret just wants to stay in Acre and perform his sworn duties.

Pursued across the Mediterranean Sea by slavers, Brother Foulques and his Army of Children are about to be thrust into a confrontation with the greatest warriors the East has ever known: the Mamluks. To survive, Brother Foulques must turn to risky alliances… and pray that his choices do not lead them all to destruction.
