5.0 out of 5 stars Friendship, honour, triumph and loss 13 Aug 2004

By AvidReader

Format:Hardcover

I have read this book from time to time over the last four decades. I think it moves more now that I have a greater expeience of life. It is for me the best of Rosemary Sutcliff's books. It is the story of Randal a half Saxon dog boy rescued from a cruel master and his redemption in the care of a Norman knight and in the friendship of Bevis the knight's grandson. Randal grows into a man and pays the price of love and the price of honour. The places and the people are fully evoked in descripton and narrative and authentic to the period due to resarch that must have been a labour of love. Happy reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Sutcliff's most outstanding books. 5 Mar 2000

By A Customer

Format:Paperback

Knight's Fee is a beautifully told story about an orphaned dog-boy who, by a twist of fate, is brought up with a Lord's son. In many places it is sad but it is also very warm. Even those who do not like historical stories should love this. Every character is perfectly formed and the description is incredibly vivid.

A beautiful, beautiful book.

4.0 out of 5 stars A magically-evoked description of life in Norman England 13 July 2007

By K. Marzillier

Format:Paperback

I first read this book as a child and it has stayed with me ever since. The story of Randal, a mistreated Saxon boy, who is brought up by a Norman knight alongside his grandson, is a masterpiece. The friendship between Randal and Bevis is beautifully written and the descriptions of England at the time of the Crusades are magical.

As with many of Sutcliff's books, it is about duty, friendship and honour, with an ending that will no doubt leave many readers with a lump in their throat.

Knight's fee is a coming-of-age story set in Norman England. As usual, Sutcliff's articulate descriptions of place and atmosphere make the book immensely readable, and her eye for... Read more
