Chronicle As Books Devotion and the Devil (The Borderer Chronicles #2)

1560. One chronicle; two stories; three cities; four journeys. This is the second volume in the Borderer Chronicles series.

Four men of dedication, motivated by their own devotion, take different journeys to the same city. A steadfast man, by way of siege; a noble man, by way of melancholia put aside for dalliance and duty; a godly man, by way of loss and self-discovery; and a vain and sinful man by way of guile. All travel to deal with a master of prominence; a devil within a guild of secrets.

All four men will face the Devil, but who will be the man to defeat him, the steadfast man, the noble man, the godly man, or the vain and sinful man? Who best could play the Devil’s game and win?

Devotion and the Devil is a saga set against the Seige of Leith, and the triangle of trade between Edinburgh, Newcastle and Antwerp.

What could I do but give my own book five stars? Perhaps it could be better? Yes I know it could.

Firstly a disclaimer; I know the author, he is a colleague. Not a close colleague. Next a truth. I loved his first book, particulary because it was set in my neck of the woods, and dealt with a period much read by myself. I enjoyed it immensly. So I am a fan. (His book was the reason I joined Goodreads in the first place.)As a fan, the author gave me a pre-read of the original drafts of the two books, Devotion and the Devil is based upon; The School of War and the Black Merchant's Guild. Again I

A gripping read from first to last. A great story with lots of different layers, interesting characters and some great writing. There is humour and pathos, horror and romance so seamlessly combined as to make this one of the best historical adventure stories I have read for quite a while. I was uncertain about the first book in the series, I suppose because one third was a boy's tale. But this continuation of the boy's story within a greater story of other people's lives was extremely well told.

This book qualifies as my best read so far this year, a good book in around fifteen to sixteen great reads and three books I wish I never started.Good plotting sets this book apart from other historical fictions, as well as some suprising twists in the tale. A great rendition of little known Scottish history, the Seige of Leith, as well as intriguing stories about merchant traders, again, set this book apart from the usual 'Hist Fic' fodder that seems to be churned out by publishing houses on

An absorbing read right from the first chapter. Lots of locations and well-rounded characters make this a very good read for those interested in sixteenth century history and adventure. Humour and action, romance and intrigue, but above all wonderful emotion and pathos.Intelligently written, with great attention to detail, a sense of time and language. Easy to read, with dialogue that breathes real life into fictional people. The novel is intersperced by some wonderfully written 'journal

Upon having a clear out of books to take to the local Charity shop, I came across this book that I had won a while ago in a Goodreads First Reads giveaway. I don't know how I managed to overlook this page turner of a book!I have not read the first of the Chronicles, but this didn't make any difference to my enjoyment. Am now hoping to find the first of the Chronicles, and shall be reading the third. Recommended.

The second chronicle of three to date ... and as with Three Hills, the reader is taken on an adventurous journey through the adult life of John Brownfield, a Sixteenth Century Borderer. Beautifully written, Mark Montgomery pens action, tragedy and intrigue as exquisitely as he pens lust, devotion and romance. The reader is drawn in to the tale immediately and almost without realising; the descriptions so well recorded as to create a full sensory vision. The characters within become like old
