Book excerpt: "The research is impeccable and the writing full of verve." Antonia Senior, The Times 1642. England has been plunged into a Civil War. Blandford Candy is sent to London, after an illicit affair, and joins the Roundhead army to fight against the King, taking part in the Battle of Edgehill. A reluctant hero if ever there was one, he becomes a spy for the cause - and, through luck or judgement, uncovers more than one Royalist plot. His love of wine and the fairer sex prove both a curse and a blessing for the agent.Blandford soon earns the enmity of the King's spy mistress Jane Whorwood, and patronage of the great parliamentarian leader John Hampden. As well as navigating the politics and perils of the Civil War Blandford must also deal with members of his family, who turn out to be to be far more duplicitous and ruthless than any rival agent. To survive, Blandford must choose a side. The Last Roundhead is the first book in the acclaimed series of novels, charting the adventures of Sir Blandford Candy during the English Civil War.

Download or read book Hugh Gwyeth A Roundhead Cavalier written by Beulah Marie Dix and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hugh Gwyeth presents the exciting story of an adventurous teenager during the Cromwellian period. In the title, the young boy, Hugh Gwyeth, is addressed as a roundhead and a cavalier because he remains conflicted about who he should extend his support to during the Civil War. The roundheads supported Cromwell and chose the Parliament of England, seeking a constitutional monarchy. They fought against the Cavaliers, who were royalists supporting King Charles I and sought absolute monarchy. The answer to who he finally chooses unfolds later in the novel. American author Beulah Marie Dix relied mainly on historically popular military events when writing. It's a subject she chose in Hugh Gwyeth as well. Her incredible writing style, vivid descriptions of the events, and powerful characterization made this work an instant hit.

Book excerpt: BOOK FIVE OF THE SIR BLANDFORD CANDY ADVENTURE SERIES "Jemahl Evans takes us on a rollicking ride through embattled seventeenth century England. The tumultuous times of the English Civil War leap from the pages like blasts from the matchlocks and cannons over Marston Moor. Jemahl Evans does for the seventeenth century what George MacDonald Fraser did for the nineteenth. Blandford Candy is as endearing a rogue as you are likely to find in any work of literature. Captain Candy is a truly stunning character." Matthew Harffy. 1646. Blandford Candy, rake and spy, travels to the colonies on family business. He becomes embroiled in a quest for a priceless emerald cross, once destined for the Pope in Rome but lost in the American wilderness. Our hero has to escape a mutinous pirate crew, warring settlers, and hostile native tribes, but Blandford soon realises that there are others searching for the jewel. A Jesuit agent, Father William Francis, and his renegade band hunt for Candy along the banks of the Susquehanna River. Blandford cannot escape from England's civil war, as the colonies burn during The Plundering Time. The pioneering colonist, Margaret Brent, struggles to hold Maryland together in the conflict. Candy must choose a side, if he is to make it home before the relentless Father Francis can catch him. It is a new world but Blandford has the same old problems. Recommended reading for fans of George Macdonald Fraser, Michael Arnold and Michael Jecks. Jemahl Evans is the author of the acclaimed Sir Blandford Candy series of novels. He lives in West Wales.
