Praise for WARLORD'S GOLD: The enigmatic Stryker promises much entertainment - Sunday TimesA dark-hued romp, livid with the scents, sounds and colours of a country on the brink of implosion . . . impressive - Daily ExpressIf you love Sharpe, you'll be knocked out by the 17th-century civil war adventures of Captain Innocent Stryker . . . at times this one-eyed veteran makes Sharpe look rather civilised - Peterborough Evening TelegraphIf you like Cornwell you will like Arnold - Historical Novels ReviewA thumping good read. With considerable skill, Arnold has reached back in time to create a living, breathing depiction of 17th century England. From his vividly described battle scenes to the richly drawn descriptions of everyday life, from the earthy vernacular of its characters to the precise details of military equipment, every last part of this book oozes authenticity. Fans of Cornwell's Sharpe novels will love Captain Innocent Stryker - he's uglier, meaner and cleverer than Sharpe. Tremendous!
