Their god is War. And every god needs his Devil. THE RELIGION
Malta, 1565. The greatest war the world has ever seen is unleashed on the doomed island as the Turks do battle with the Knights. The Knights call themselves The Religion. The Turks call them the Hounds of Hell.

Enter Mattias Tannhauser – warrior, hero and double agent. Under Carla’s command, he embarks on a death-defying mission to save her son. But can he evade the Inquisition and escape to run the Turkish blockade to victory in time?

Fantastic, one of the best books I've read. Some people have saint the book is brutal in places, yes war is brutal, but also is friendship, love and Persian poetry. Read it and make your own mind up
