5.0 out of 5 stars Five Star read From Five Star Historical Researcher 20 April 1999
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
To all you who like a good medieval story or one with a Scottish setting Susan King's THE ANGEL KNIGHT is wonderful. The setting is 1306 Scotland where the heroine Christian has just burned her lowland castle in support of Robert Bruce. As she escapes she is captured by King Edward's men and is imprisioned in a cage hanging from a castle in the borders. She is found by the hero Gavin Faulkener at near death. He has returned to England having been exiled 10 years before for treasonous talk about the way the English sacked Berwick so although he is an English Knight of the realm he has very little loyalty to Edward. He has been given Christian's castle and is expected to restore it as well as look for the legendary gold that lies buried in the castle. He removes Christian from her cage with very little authority as he believes she will die and marries her quickly as means of solidifying his right to the castle. She doesn't die and as he restores the castle loves grows between the two. There are, as usual, wonderful developed secondary characters and an element of mystical Celtic lore. A strong point of Ms King's work is that she knows her history and blends it so nicely with her romance novels but the history doesn't take over the story. I would highly reccommend this one as well as all of her books for a most satisfying historical read; she easily is at the top of historical romance rung with books that are well thought out and historically accurate to boot. No one does a Scottish setting better than Susan King

Susan King takes an impossible situation and makes it possible without falling back on coincidences or contrivences. Angel Knight gets into the heart of the Scottish/British conflict with lazer-sharp precision while telling an entertaining and compelling story. Kudos, Susan!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Quite a different hero! 23 Mar 1999
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Gavin Faulkener isn't like most Englishmen in 14th c. Scotland: He has some morals. Christian MacGillean, a relative of the outlawed Scots king, Robert Bruce, is wholly like most Scots: She despises the English. Faulkener weds the lady, to save her from a slow, horrid death; is awarded her property; and is stuck between doing the bidding of his king and doing what is right by his new wife. He chooses wisely, but the choice isn't quite as simple as it seems.

This is a lovely novel by Susan King, and a thoroughly enjoyable one. The hero, Faulkener, is compassionate, intelligent, shrewd and simply charming. Lady Christian couldn't hold out against him, and neither could I!
