Also known as Warriors of Christendom Trilogy or Kings and Crusaders Trilogy, my books: Kings and Crusaders, The Storming Rage, and The Final Journey follow the key characters King Richard I of England, Sir Peter de Preaux, and Sultan Saladin of Syria. Others that are significant people in the trilogy that are in one or more of the books include major characters listed in the following.
King Guy of Jerusalem
Emperor Fredrick Barbarossa of Germany
Princess Berengaria of Navarre{ becomes queen of England upon her loving marriage to Richard I}
Princess Joan of England{ starts off as queen of Sicily, but loses her power at her husband's death.
King Philip of France
Duke Hugh of Burgundy
Hospitaller Grand Master Garnier de Nablus

There are more soldiers and other than this but I listed the most important people in this post. While direct research has been taken from numerous sources, I must now come to an important announcement, and that is that my trilogy is coming to a close. My books teach much different views of the crusades than what most modern sources do. While America has apparently had popular interest in the crusades since the 1970s. I clearly believe there is still a wide audience out there that will read my books. I have been surprised by the success of my blog in other nations, and hope to reach further the European audience. There is a facebook page called Warriors of Christendom Trilogy by Joshua Dotson. I invite any people who will read my books to like it.
One more notice to my readers. The first draft to The Final Journey is nearly complete. It is so far more than 800 pages. I predict it to be finished within another 100.
