Description:Three enchanted tales from medieval Europe—where knights prove their valor, princes face ghostly reckonings, and ancient promises reach beyond the grave.In Othon the Archer, a young nobleman—falsely suspected of illegitimacy and cast out by his jealous father—plunges into the Rhine rather than accept monastic exile. Rescued by a company of archers, he must prove his worth through courage alone, hiding his noble birth as he battles supernatural forces in haunted castles, wins tournaments with his bow, and pursues the heart of Princess Helena. Set in the mist-shrouded forests and ruined fortresses along the Rhine, this romantic adventure pulses with the Gothic atmosphere of medieval Germany.Lord Gaston Phœbus chronicles the extraordinary life of Gaston III de Foix-Béarn (1331-1391)—warrior, diplomat, hunter, writer, and patron of the arts. Known as "Phœbus" for his golden hair or his devotion to astronomy, this powerful prince navigates the brutal politics of 14th-century France, the Hundred Years' War, and a devastating personal tragedy when his own son attempts to poison him. Dumas weaves historical detail with fantastical elements, creating a dramatic portrait of one of medieval Europe's most colorful figures.In Countess Bertha's Porridge, the benevolent Countess Bertha de Rosenberg rebuilds her castle with the blessing of the cobolds—good spirits who protect the estate. To honor the peasants who labored on the construction, she establishes an annual a great feast where porridge is served to all. But when greedy descendants break this sacred promise, the ghost of Countess Bertha returns to exact supernatural justice, proving that some vows transcend death itself.From the master of historical adventure—three timeless tales of chivalry, vengeance, and medieval magic.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
