Penman Sharon Lionheart
Richard I was crowned King in 1189 and set off almost immediately for the Third Crusade. This was a bloody campaign to regain the Holy Land, marked by warfare among the Christians and extraordinary campaigns against the Saracens. Men and women found themselves facing new sorts of challenges and facing an uncertain future. John, the youngest son, was left behind - and with Richard gone, he was free to conspire with the French king to steal his brother's throne. Overshadowing the battlefields that stretched to Jerusalem and beyond were the personalities of two great adversaries: Richard and Saladin. They quickly took the measure of each other in both war and diplomacy. The result was mutual admiration: a profound acknowledgement of a worthy opponent. In Lionheart, a gripping narrative of passion, intrigue, battle and deceit, Sharon Penman reveals a true and complex Richard - a man remarkable for his power and intelligence, his keen grasp of warfare and his concern for the safety of his men, who followed him against all odds.

Penman Sharon A King's Ransom
Travelling home from the bloody battlefields of the Holy Land, the Crusader King Richard the Lionheart is shipwrecked in the Mediterranean after an encounter with pirates. He should be protected by a papal decree, but he is betrayed and captured by the Duke of Austria - a man who has good reason to loathe him - and is immediately claimed by the Holy Roman Emperor, who also bears him a bitter grudge. Richard is to spend fifteen months imprisoned, much of it in the notorious fortress at Trefils, which few men ever left. Meanwhile, his mother, Eleanor of Aquitaine, is moving heaven and earth to raise a staggering ransom, travelling across Europe herself to buy the release of her favourite son. But her determination may not be enough. At the eleventh hour, the Duke announces that he has had a better offer from the French king, Philippe, and Richard's own treacherous brother, John. They will pay an even larger sum to continue Richard's captivity - or to turn him over to their tender mercies. Told with masterful insight and rich historical detail, A King's Ransom is a striking portrayal of the darker, troubled years of Richard - a man whose courage, compassion and intelligence became the stuff of legend.

Penman Sharon The Sunne in Splendour
This special thirtieth anniversary edition of the bestselling The Sunne in Splendour, features an author's note from Sharon Penman. Richard, last-born son of the Duke of York, was seven months short of his nineteenth birthday when he bloodied himself at the battles of Barnet and Tewkesbury, earning his legendary reputation as a battle commander in the Wars of the Roses, and ending the Lancastrian line of succession. But Richard was far more than a warrior schooled in combat. He was also a devoted brother, an ardent suitor, a patron of the arts, an indulgent father, a generous friend. Above all, he was a man of fierce loyalties, great courage and firm principles, who was ill at ease among the intrigues of Edward's court. The very codes Richard lived by ultimately betrayed him. But he was betrayed by history too. Leaving no heir, his reputation was at the mercy of his successor, and Henry Tudor had too much at stake to risk mercy. Thus was born the myth of King Richard III, the man who would stop at nothing to gain the throne. Filled with the sights and sounds of battle, the customs and love of daily life, the rigours and dangers of Court politics and the touching concerns of very real men and women, The Sunne in Splendour is a richly coloured tapestry of medieval England.

Penman Sharon The Land Beyond the Sea
Filled with drama and battle, tragedy and romance, Sharon Penman's The Land Beyond the Sea tells the epic tale of a clash of cultures that will resonate with readers today. 1172. The Kingdom of Jerusalem, also known as Outremer - the land beyond the sea. A young realm, Outremer was baptized in blood when the men of the First Crusade captured Jerusalem from the Saracens in 1099. The crusaders who stayed have adapted to an utterly new world: a landscape of blazing heat, exotic customs and enemies who are also neighbours. Seeking retribution for the massacre in 1099, Saladin, leader of the vast Saracen army, launches a campaign to reclaim the sacred land from its current ruler, Baldwin IV. But while the young king proves to be intelligent, courageous and dedicated to the welfare and protection of his people, he lives his life under the terrible affliction of leprosy which has plagued him from an early age. While the scheming of rival factions and fierce political deception plague the halls of the royal court, the ever-present threat from Saladin weighs heavily on the young king's shoulders. Furthermore, there are few that Baldwin can trust, including the archbishop William of Tyre and Lord Balian d'Ibelin, a charismatic leader who has been one of the few to maintain the peace. But war is coming…

Набор настольных игр Games Workshop Gargoyle Brood, 1 шт.
Крылатые бестии Горгулий (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) часто можно встретить в качестве поддержки первых волн тиранидского нашествия. Основная цель Горгулий (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) — дезорганизовать противника и не дать ему сосредоточиться до того момента, как подойдут основные силы тиранид. С физиологической точки зрения Горгульи (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) являются одним из эволюционных ответвлений термагаунта. Переняв от своего генетического предка животную хитрость и инстинктивное умение атаковать обнаруженные слабости, горгульи (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) закрепляют это преимущество с помощью высокой манёвренности, которую им даёт пара крыльев. И хотя слухи об этих тварях преувеличивают опасность горгулий (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood), их противники смотрят на небеса с опаской и готовностью к бою, ведь безобидная на первый взгляд тучка может оказаться сворой горгулий (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood). Те, кто сталкивался с горгульями (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) и выжил, считают их трусливыми созданиями, намеренно избегающими рукопашного боя. Это действительно так, ведь крылья горгулий (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) достаточно легко повредить. Однако, если Разум Улья подавит их инстинкты, горгульи (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) набрасываются на врага, атакуя его когтями и ослепляя его плевками яда. Сознательно допущенная кривизна в теле горгулий (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) позволяет им проникать в, казалось, невозможные для проникновения места. Вентиляционная шахта, наблюдательный люк, выхлопная труба мануфакторума или даже шахта мусоросжигателя — при достаточном количестве времени горгульи (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) проберутся и туда. Обнаружив противника, горгульи (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood) атакуют его всеми возможными средствами, стремясь выбраться на открытое пространство, где их манёвренность снова станет их силой. И хотя они не являются сильнейшими существами Улья, оказаться с ними в закрытом помещении равнозначно мучительному самоубийству. И небо темнеет Данный набор содержит все необходимые детали для сборки 10 моделей Горгулий (Tyranid Gargoyle Brood). В комплект входят 10 маленьких подставок для летающих моделей. Внимание! Набор не собран и не окрашен! Клей и краски в комплект не входят. При сборке рекомендуется использовать пластиковый клей, инструменты и краски
