I am so excited to announce PTTP's newest giveaway: The Greatest Knight by the fantabulous Elizabeth Chadwick!
Synopsis:
Royal protector. Loyal servant. Forgotten hero.
A penniless young knight with few prospects, William Marshal is plucked from obscurity when he saves the life of Henry II's formidable queen, Eleanor of Aquitaine. In gratitude, she appoints him tutor to the heir to the throne, the volatile and fickle Prince Henry. But being a royal favorite brings its share of danger and jealousy as well as fame and reward.
A writer of uncommon historical integrity and accuracy, Elizabeth Chadwick resurrects the true story of one of England's greatest forgotten heroes in a captivating blend of fact and fiction. The Greatest Knight restores William Marshal to his rightful place at the pinnacle of the Middle Ages, reflecting through him the triumphs, scandals, and power struggles that haven't changed in eight hundred years.

Oh, thank goodness, a giveaway I would love to win but that I don't have to! I got myself a British import before I found out Sourcebooks was re-releasing Chadwicks novels. (I kinda fell in love with William Marshall many years ago!) Since this is starting to get some buzz, I guess now would be a good time to read it. Good luck to everyone! Hope you're enjoying it, Amy!

No need to enter me in this contest. Just wanted to let you all know that I am currently reading this book and it is without a doubt the best book I have read to date. Not a light and fluffy read but one you can really sink your teeth into. Make sure and go buy it if you don't win a copy. Well worth it.
I will have Elizabeth at my blog on September 1st for anyone who is interested and am giving away two copies of this delicious work of art.
huggs,
Terra
