Reply to comment by MustacheEmperor in TIL about the Battle of Jaffa, whereby the Crusaders leader King Richard I and the Muslim defender Saladin would meet in battle for the decisive time. Richard I ultimately won but both sides left with complete respect for each other. by NotAGoodDayAhead

I'll add them to the ever growing book wish list 🤣. Slightly off on a tangent but have you read Bernard Cornwell's series the last kingdom? It's a blend of fact and fiction told from a fictional characters point of view during the Viking invasions. A really good read 👍

I actually just picked up my first Cornwell book, the first book in the Harlequin series! I'm pretty sure I'll be reading them all now, thanks for the rec.
