"LAWHEAD KNOWS HOW TO SPIN A TALE." --Booklist In a time of legends and heroes, blood and mystery, one man will carry on his family's destiny as he sets upon a dangerous and glorious quest. The Great Crusade is long over, or so Duncan, son of Murdo, believes until a long-lost uncle appears from the East bearing tales of immense treasure. Though the Iron Lance had been won for the emperor, an even holier relic has been found: the Black Rood--the prayer-worn, blood-stained remnant of the True Cross--now endangered by the greedy ambitions of ruthless crusader barons bent on carving kingdoms from the desert sands of the Middle East. When Duncan's life is shattered by tragedy, he sets sail on his own pilgrimage to Jerusalem, following in the footsteps of his father. But the gates to the Holy Land are guarded by the warrior priests known as the Knights Templar. These fearsome guardians hold the key to more than just Duncan's fate--the very destiny of the West is in their hands.

excellent series ( )

Although I enjoy the topic this series are about as I love reading about history, I didn't find this one to be all that engaging. I felt aspects of it dragged on too much, and the most enjoyable parts for me were the parts about Gordon, rather than Duncan. I am still looking forward to reading the third installment, and I adore Lawhead, but I am unfortunately not enjoying this trilogy as much as I'd like to. ( )

Delivering lots of action and adventure, The Black Rood is the 2nd book in Stephen Lawhead’s Celtic Crusades trilogy.

Starting in 1132 on the Orkney Islands, this book is narrated by Duncan, the son of Murdo, who was the main character of the first book. Duncan learns some of his father’s story and decides to go on a pilgrimage to the Holy Lands. He swears that he will recover a pieces of the holy cross, called the black rood, and bring the relic back to the Orkneys to rest with the Lance of Christ that his father brought home. With a small band of companions he sets off on his quest.

The author includes a lot of information about the different peoples and religions that existed in the Middle East at that time. I also found the early parts of the book, the actual traveling through Europe to Marseilles to take ship to the Holy Land very interesting. A well-researched yet still lively read, that both informs and entertains. I look forward to the final volume in the trilogy. ( )

Read it, liked it. Finally learned what the word "rood" meant. I'll get the last one. I figure the last should likely be about the Grail. It's a weird three level story though. We have our hero who is living the current story, who is also writing an account of his adventures to date, and then there is a 20th century attorney who is reading the entire completed chronicle, nine hundred years later.

Druga knjiga Lohedove trilogije prati doživljaje mladog Dankana, koji se upustio u potrafu za delom Časnog krsta. U toj potrazi pridružuje mu se neobični irski sveštenik i jermenski princ, koji pokušava da se vrati u svoju domovinu. Kada njih trojica stignu do Mediterana, shvataju da im brige tek počinju: neprijateljski raspoloženi templari, zavađene hrišćanske velmože i Turci Seldžuci samo su deo nevolja koje Dankan i njegovi prijatelji moraju prevazići kako bi im se u rukama našao – crni krst.
