In Michael P. Spradlin's kick-ass new young adult adventure novel, "The Youngest Templar Book 1: Keeper of the Grail," Tristan, an orphan with a mysterious past who's been raised at a Cistercian monastery, joins the Knights Templar as a squire during the Crusades. Spradlin's impeccable pacing keeps the action furious and kinetic as Tristan helps his master battle Saracens and flees the beseiged city of Acre carrying the most precious of treasures--the Holy Grail. Along the way, he teams up with a Saracen assassin and a young Robin Hood. Rich in historical detail and a thrilling read. Bring on Book 2!Frazer Dobson
