About this listen

"The White Company" is a historical adventure novel by Arthur Conan Doyle set during the Hundred Years' War. The story takes place in England, France, and Spain, in the years 1366 and 1367, against the background of the campaign of Edward, the Black Prince to restore Peter of Castile to the throne of the Kingdom of Castile. At the age of twenty, young Alleyne, son of Edric, leaves the Catholic abbey where he has been raised - intelligent, skilled, and well-liked, though sheltered and naive - and goes out to see the world, in accordance with the terms of his father’s will.

The same day, the abbot banishes John of Hordle for worldly behavior: great appetite, teasing, and flirting. At the Pied Merlin inn, they make friends with veteran archer Sam Aylward who has returned to England from France to recruit for the White Company of mercenaries. Aylward has brought a request for Sir Nigel Loring of Christchurch to take command of the free company of archers.

Must read adventure story

This a great book to read to your kids. Gallant knights, fetching damsels, hardy men-at-arms; a truly grand tale. Personal opinion, to capture the story best, the first read should be done by book.

The audiobook narrator does a fantastic job bringing the characters alive.

Cheers and a merry read
