Author: Rafael Sabatini
Genre: Classical Romance
Novel Review
Rating: 5/5 stars
Andre-Louis Moreau's boyhood friend (almost a priest and an eloquent speaker for the human right to life) is manipulated into a duel by the most dangerous swordsmen in the land and murdered. This sets off a whirlwind adventure across France in the early years of the French Revolution for the pragmatic Andre-Louis who learns to lose himself in the power of the wind instead of jousting at windmills as he seeks to take vengeance upon the powerful Marquis. But as with life, things do not always work out the way one intends at the onset of the adventure. This book is action-packed in every chapter as you follow our hero and watch him grow and develop into a powerful entity in the French Revolution. However, it is not until the end that we discover the greatest power of all!
Highly recommend. Read it over and over, great ideals, philosophy and morals. This book leaves you encouraged and optimistic!
