About this title

Synopsis

A fines del siglo XIII, San Juan de Acre, �ltima ciudad de los cruzados, est� a punto de caer en poder del Islam. En Francia, el rey Felipe IV el Hermoso prepara el gran golpe contra la Orden del Temple, que acabar� siendo disuelta por el papa Clemente V tras un juicio injusto, que dar� origen a una leyenda milenaria…

Esta es la historia de Jaime de Castellnou, un joven caballero templario del condado de Ampurias que entra a formar parte de la Orden del Temple poco antes de su disoluci�n. Esta la historia del ocaso de una �poca de ideales caballerescos y cruzados, eliminados por la ciega ambici�n de papas y reyes. Esta es la historia de una aventura prodigiosa con el objetivo de salvaguardar la reliquia m�s sagrada de la cristiandad: el Santo Grial.

Con el rigor hist�rico que le caracteriza, Jos� Luis Corral nos gu�a por una �poca convulsa y llena de misterios. Una obra imprescindible para entender uno de los mayores enigmas del Medievo. Una novela inolvidable.

�Jos� Luis Corral es el campe�n espa�ol del g�nero de la novela hist�rica�. El Pa�s

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In the late thirteenth century, Saint John of Acre, the last stronghold of the Crusades, is about to fall to the Muslims. King Philip IV of France is preparing a decisive blow against the Knights Templar, who are ultimately disbanded by Pope Clement V following an unjust trial that will fuel a thousand-year legend...

This is the story of Jaspert de Castellnou, a young man from Emp�ries who joins the Knights Templar shortly before its dissolution. It is the story of the decline of an age of chivalric ideals and crusades and the blind ambition of popes and kings. It is the story of an epic adventure to safeguard Christianity’s most sacred relic: the Holy Grail.

With his characteristic historical rigor, Jos� Luis Corral guides us through a tumultuous era full of mysteries. The Knight of the Temple is an unforgettable novel and essential reading for understanding one of the greatest enigmas of the medieval era.

“Jos� Luis Corral is Spain’s master of the historical novel.” - El Pa�s
