Stormbringers : Order of Darkness / Philippa Gregory ; [interior illustrations by Fred van Deelen].

Gregory, Philippa. : (author). Van Deelen, Fred. (Added Author).

Summary:

It is 1453. Constantinople has fallen and the world is changing beyond all recognition. Uneducated and filled with superstitious fears, people are seeing evidence of the end times everywhere they look. Luca Vero, a member of the mysterious Order of Darkness, is charged with heading out into the world and investigating these reports of signs pointing to the end of the world. Luca is accompanied by scribe Brother Peter and his friend and servant Frieze as well as two young women, Lady Isolde and Ishraq. Together they witness an apparent prophesy of hope and hear the call to join a children’s crusade. The leader of the crusade, Johann, claims that God has called him to march to Jerusalem promising to part the sea to allow the children to march there directly. Confused but finding it difficult to resist the charismatic leader and his apparent message from God, Luca and his companions find themselves drawn into the crusade until disaster strikes, leaving them to deal with the aftermath of Johann’s misguided faith and the grief and superstitions of the local people.
