I really liked this book very much and despite trying to find flaws for it, the only thing I came across is the fact that it resembles more with a romanticized history book than a historical novel, as the vast majority of characters are not fictional. Also the facts are mostly historical events, but the way it is written makes all the savory of this novel.

This is the first of 7 books.
They are well written and the author has done a very good job at digging the French history (1200-1400)
