Horsemen on the Hills
Buy the book from:
A young traveller enters a highland world where mounted warriors, local lords and isolated communities enforce competing claims. A personal mission becomes entangled with feuds, raids and the need to cross difficult country safely.
The novel uses horsemanship and landscape to explore the fragmented authority of medieval society. Trease keeps attention on travel, obligation and local power rather than presenting the period only through royal courts.
