Ян Гийу – The Templar Knight (страница 1)
The Crusades Trilogy
Jan Guillou
Translated by Steven T. Murray
‘The road to hell is paved with good intentions’ Jacula Prudentum, 1651, no. 170
In the name of God, most benevolent, ever-merciful.
‘God is great in His glory, Who took His votary in the night to a wide and open land from the Sacred Mosque to the most distant Mosque whose precincts We have blessed, in order to show him Our sign; Verily He is all-hearing and all-seeing.’
