The new book by Michael P. Spradlin, "THE YOUNGEST TEMPLAR - KEEPER OF THE GRAIL" is a story of Tristan, who was not only an orphan but also now a squire to the Templar Order.
The book is fairly fast paced and intriguing with enough twists to keep you interested. It is written somewhere between first and third person. I generally loath the first person written style and usually can not make it through one without giving up. However, while this is written in a first person fashion it flows very well and will drag you into the story easily. Many writers could take lessons from Spradlin on this style.
The history of the Templar's was well researched and the book contains a nice supply of history to accompany the story. Michael P. Spradlin did a great job with this book and it is the first of his stories that I have read. Which begs me to think I will check out his other writing as well.
Highly recommended - pre-teen to teen for the most part, but anyone with knowledge or is fascinated by this period of time will like the story.
