I have read many books about the Battle of Agincourt, and I can honestly say that this book ranks as one of the best. on the subject. I loved how the author introduced the names of many aristocratic key players on both the English and the French sides. It's a pity that the names of the thousands of foot soldiers who died on the day will never be known.
Sections of the book were written in the first-person, narrated by relatives of the key protagonists during the periods before, during, and after the battle. This clever writing technique brought the various bloody, and sometimes emotional, scenes to life. The levels of violence, fortitude, and grim deaths are almost unimaginable today.
A thoroughly unputdownable book and highly recommended.

The Agincourt King by Mercedes Rochelle, is a fantastic novel. Bringing the build up to the great battle of Agincourt alongside the battle itself and the immediate aftermath, Rochelle weaves a tale of strategy, chaos and emotion.

We see the events through the eyes of Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester and sundry English and French nobles, and get a real sense of the chaos and the uncertainty that followed the build-up and the subsequent fight at Agincourt.

Fantastic historical fiction.
