Heretic, by Bernard Cornwell

Third and final installment in the Grail Quest series, this continues the story of Thomas of Hookton, an English archer during the Hundred Years' War. This story takes Thomas far from the action of the war, on his own quest both to find the Grail and seek revenge on his father's murderer. The story meanders, and the characters are more stereotypical. Cornwell is a master of the historical setting, creating a strong sense of time and place. I recommend the first two in the series, The Archer's Tale, and Vagabond. 355 p.
