‘De Essex Dogs’ van Dan Jones vertelt het spannende verhaal van een groep mannen, die met en voor elkaar vechten in de Honderdjarige Oorlog. ‘De Essex Dogs’ is het eerste deel van de Crécy trilogie. De Essex Dogs is het fictiedebuut van bestsellerauteur en gerenommeerd historicus en televisiemaker Dan Jones. 12 juli 1346, de beginjaren van de Honderdjarige Oorlog. De Essex Dogs landen in Normandië. Deze groep huurlingen zal veertig dagen vechten voor de Engelse koning Edward in de strijd tegen zijn valse neef Filips. Hun kleine sloep heeft de Franse kust nog niet bereikt of de eerste pijlen scheren door de lucht. Op de klif rechts van hen wordt een vuur ontstoken. De doorgewinterde Loveday hóórt de Fransen voordat hij ze ziet: twee eenheden, misschien meer, met hun kruisbogen in de aanslag. Een van zijn mannen toont hun, op zijn Schots, zijn blote achterste. De strijd die naties zal smeden is begonnen. Een van de populairste historici van deze tijd verbeeldt met zijn onvergetelijke personages van De Essex Dogs de grimmige realiteit van middeleeuwse oorlog. Dit krachtig staaltje militaire fictie, geworteld in historische nauwkeurigheid, is het eerste deel van de Crécy Trilogie.

'A convincing picture of hard men in a hard time, Dan Jones' fiction rings with the authority of his scholarly history.' PHILIPPA GREGORY 'Absolutely fabulous. A raucous, swaggering charge through the medieval underworld. I had such a good time reading it that I never wanted it to stop.' ANTONIA FRASER 'Superb historical fiction as fresh, vivid and vital as this morning's headlines... proves once again that nothing really changes, be it a soldier's life – or great storytelling.' LEE CHILD AN ENDLESS WAR. A BLOOD-SOAKED BATTLEFIELD. A BAND OF BROTHERS. 1347. After a bloody battle at Crécy, the Essex Dogs pick through the wreckage of the fighting – and their own lives. Now the Dogs are sent to attack the soaring walls of Calais where a new siege is beginning. To get home, they must survive in a lawless camp that is deadlier than any battlefield. Obsessed with finding the Captain, Loveday is losing control of his men. Romford is haunted by a horrific figure from his past. And Scotsman is spiralling into a pit of drink, violence and self-pity. The Dogs are being torn apart – but this war is far from over. It won't be long before they lose more of their own... From a vast siege camp built outside Calais' walls, to pirate ships patrolling the harbour, and finally into the darkest corners of oligarchs' houses inside a starving city, this captivating and darkly comic story brings the fourteenth century vividly to life. A searing tale about merchants, money and the medieval 'deep state', this is a must-read for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Conn Iggulden. 'Wolves of Winter is a horrible joy to read: horrible because of the vivid, random bloodshed, and a joy because of the easy authenticity of his prose... If you've ever enjoyed a Ridley Scott film, go and buy this book!' ALICE WINN 'Recalls Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall novels with its masterly control, period details, and understated humor.' KIRKUS STARRED REVIEW 'Dan Jones tackles The Hundred Years' War and puts faces and personalities, drug habits and fighting in an urgent light. I feel like I'm there . . . Simply stunning.' DUFF McKAGAN, New York Times No1 bestselling author of It's So Easy, and founder member of Guns N' Roses 'Finding hints of light amid the darkness of war, Wolves of Winter captures the humanity at the heart of our history.' DR MICHAEL LIVINGSTON 'Wolves of Winter is another brilliant book by Dan Jones. I'm constantly amazed at how prolific Dan is, and also how he keeps his standards so high.' CHARLES SPENCER 'Nobody but Dan Jones could write this story... It captures the grime, blood, sweat and friendship of medieval war brilliantly.' GARETH RUSSELL 'An enthralling, captivating, and thrilling chronicle... Truly wonderful and truly fascinating!' GENERAL DAVID PETRAEUS Praise for Essex Dogs: 'Reminds me of Cornwell at his best.' CONN IGGULDEN 'This is the Hundred Years' War as directed by Oliver Stone with a historian's eye for detail' ELODIE HARPER

The BBC History 2022 Book of the Year and Richard & Judy Book Club Pick from Sunday Times bestselling author Dan Jones. July 1346. The Hundred Years' War has begun, and King Edward and his lords are on the march through France. But this war belongs to the men on the ground. Swept up in the bloody chaos, a tight-knit company from Essex must stay alive long enough to see their home again. With sword, axe and longbow, the Essex Dogs will fight, from the landing beaches of Normandy to the bloodsoaked field of Crécy. There's Pismire, small enough to infiltrate enemy camps. Scotsman, strong enough to tear down a wall. Millstone, a stonemason who'll do anything to protect his men. Father, a priest turned devilish by the horrors of war. Romford, a talented young archer on the run from his past. And Loveday FitzTalbot, their battle-scarred captain, who just wants to get his boys home safe. Some men fight for glory. Others fight for coin. The Essex Dogs? They fight for each other. Praise for Essex Dogs: 'A book that draws you in page by page. The way Dan Jones writes enemies reminds me of Cornwell at his best, turning up tension click by click.' Conn Iggulden 'A new champion has entered the front line of historical fiction to stand shoulder to shoulder with Bernard Cornwell.' Jane Johnson 'Battle-bloody, brutal and perfectly pitched.' Daily Mail 'Vital, earthy, and heart-stopping.' Suzannah Lipscomb 'The soldiers' lives are rather brilliantly recreated – the kit, the fighting, the boredom and discomfort.' The Times 'Only Dan Jones can carry you through blood, piss and vomit and leave you wanting more.' Daisy Dunn 'A cast of unforgettable characters.' Simon Sebag Montefiore 'Simply stunning.'

In ‘Wolven in de winter’ van Dan Jones keren de onvergetelijke personages uit ‘De Essex Dogs’ terug voor een nieuwe epische campagne tijdens de Honderdjarige Oorlog. ‘Wolven in de winter’ van Dan Jones is een rauwe en tegelijkertijd humoristische verbeelding van het middeleeuwse militaire bestaan en brengt de veertiende eeuw heel dichtbij. Het is het tweede deel in de Crécy trilogie. 26 augustus 1346. De Essex Dogs zijn levend maar niet ongeschonden uit de Slag bij Crécy gekomen. De mannen verlangen naar huis, maar koning Edward heeft andere plannen. Geen enkele Engelsman zal Frankrijk verlaten voordat de kleine havenstad Calais gevallen is. Wat volgt is een elf maanden durend beleg. De Dogs moeten zien te overleven in een wetteloos kamp, gevaarlijker dan welk slagveld dan ook, omringd door schijnheilige edelen en wrede piraten. Ze zullen erachter komen dat de oorlog nog lang niet voorbij is.

"Superb historical fiction, as fresh, vivid and vital as this morning's headlines ... proves once again that nothing really changes, be it a soldier's life - or great storytelling."—Lee Child AN ENDLESS WAR. A BLOOD-SOAKED BATTLEFIELD. A BAND OF BROTHERS. The epic sequel to Essex Dogs, continuing the New York Times bestselling historian's trilogy of novels following the fortunes of ten ordinary soldiers during the Hundred Years War. 1347. Bruised and bloodied by an epic battle at Crécy, six soldiers known as the Essex Dogs pick through the wreckage of the fighting—and their own lives. Now a new siege is beginning, and the Dogs are sent to attack the soaring walls of Calais. King Edward has vowed no Englishman will leave France ‘til this city falls. To get home, they must survive a merciless winter in a lawless camp deadlier than any battlefield. Obsessed with tracking down the vanished Captain, Loveday struggles to control his own men. Romford is haunted by the reappearance of a horrific figure from his past. And Scotsman is spiraling into a pit of drink, violence, and self-pity. The Dogs are being torn apart—but this war is far from over. It won't be long before they lose more of their own. From a vast siege camp built outside Calais' walls, to the pirate ships patrolling the harbor, and into the dark corners of oligarchs' houses, where the deals that shape—and end—lives are made, this captivating and darkly comic story brings the fourteenth century vividly to life.
