The Tyrant and the Squire

Terry Jones is known for his work with Monty Python, his stories for children and his medieval books. Here he uses his inimitable comic imagination and originality to combine all three of these elements to create a perfect story for children and grown-ups alike. Deep in the Crusades, Tom has run away from home to discover what the noble life of a knight is really like. But now that his dreams have come true and he has been knighted, all is not as rosy as he’d hoped. The Tyrant and the Squire is a glorious adventure for fans of Terry's previous works, as well as Horrible Histories, King Arthur, and Monty Python.
