At the center of The Walking Drum is Kerbouchard, one of L'Amour's greatest heroes. Warrior, lover, scholar, Kerbouchard is a daring seeker of knowledge and fortune bound on a journey of enormous challenge, danger and revenge.
Across Europe, the Russian steppes and through the Bynzantine wonders of Constantinople, gateway to Asia, Kerbouchard is thrust into the heart of the treacheries, passions, voilence and dazzling wonders of a magnificent time.
From castle to slave galley, from sword-racked battlefields to a princess's secret chamber, and ultimately, to the impregnable fortress of the Valley of Assasins. Yes, I am the "one"--Kerbouchard!
Aw, snap!
