The Gold Coins
Summary
Arrows fly, swords clash, nobles and church men are gulled out of their coins, and the French and Venetians are successfully blamed for things they did not do. It is another great audiobook in the exciting and action-packed saga of the Company of Archers at the dawn of Britain’s military supremacy and the beginning of its great merchant companies. It is an enjoyable and sometimes witty listen that sticks pins into the church and nobility along the way.

Fatal Mistakes (Medieval England Historical Fiction)
Summary
This is an all-new story from Martin Archer. It is his longest and best. The action, political incorrectness, and wide-eyed innocence, and ignorance is non-stop in this exciting medieval times novel. The company's archers sail for Constantinople to join the fight against the orthodox army attempting to re-establish the Byzantine Empire with the help of the Venetians. Richard arrives from England and takes his horse archers out to delay and harry the invaders. George returns from Rome and is wounded escaping an assassination attempt by the Venetians, his men work feverishly to strengthen the city's defenses, and an alchemist joins the Company. William, Henry, and Harold come out of retirement when the Company's retirees are summoned to help because every man is needed. This is Martin Archer's greatest and longest story in the continuing saga of Cornwall's Company of Archers at the dawn of Britain's military supremacy and the rise of its great merchant companies. It is an action-packed tale with a sprinkling of Candide, Sancho Panza, and Flashman to reflect the realities and ignorances of medieval life.

The Alchemist's Revenge
Summary
Arrows fly, swords clash, women are bedded, prizes are taken, nobles and churchmen are gulled out of their coins, and the French and Venetians are successfully blamed for things they did not do. This is another exciting story in Martin Archer’s continuing and action-packed saga about the men of a company of English archers in the medieval world’s very real game of thrones. It is by far the longest and one of the most action-packed and wittiest. Flashman would be proud, Tom Brown appalled, and the men of the marines and the SAS would have felt right at home. The year is 1219 in Constantinople and the recently widowed English-born empress of the great Latin Empire has donated enough coins to the pope to have been chosen by God to be her young son’s regent. She, in turn, has hired George Courtenay’s Cornwall-based Company of Archers to help her defend her throne against the many kings and princes who are trying to replace her. This is the story of a real life game of thrones set in the early years when the first of the great heavily armed merchant companies were being formed and Britain was just beginning to grow into a naval and commercial powerhouse that would punch far above its weight in the centuries that followed.
