I just finished The Religion by Tim Willocks. This book was recommended by a friend. Here is an outline of the narrative...May 1565. Suleiman the Magnificent, emperor of the Ottomans, has declared a jihad against the Knights of Saint John the Baptist. The largest armada of all time approaches the Knights? Christian stronghold on the island of Malta. The Turks know the Knights as the ?The Hounds of Hell.? The Knights call themselves ?The Religion.?
The book is fairly violent but the strength of the characters keeps you engaged through all the awful battles. Anyone who enjoys historical fiction will enjoy the ride that Willocks provides !
