The Siege David Cragg

FOLLOWING the destruction of the Cathar strongholds of Beziers and Carcassonne, the Crusading warlord Simon de Montfort has been installed as their new ruler by a thankful church. But the Cathar nobles are plotting revenge from their hilltop fortresses. Caught in the midst of the fighting are the English knight Sir Guy de Rocheford, his lover Auslen and their French warrior friend Etienne. Their only hope amidst the turmoil is that a new leader will emerge from the Cathar nobility to challenge de Montfort and put an end to his bloody conquest of their lands.
