Following the exploits of King Henry II, Archbishop Thomas Becket, The Young King Henry, Richard the Lionheart, Eleanor of Aquitaine, King John and Sir William Marshal has never been so fun.
But how much trouble can one dysfunctional family possibly cause?
Quite a lot it turns out, especially when they are the resident Royal Family for all of England and half of France. It’s time for you to meet The Early Plantagenets.
There’ll be some characters you’ve heard of before and some strangers that will no doubt become friends. Don’t fret though, we’ll introduce you to everyone slowly and keep it simple, we’re here to have fun after all. I am sorry to say though that before our tale is complete there will be a ton of squabbling, quite a bit of treachery and it might get a bit stab-y in the middle. At least one Archbishop will, unfortunately, be very much harmed during the reading of your new book.
We’ll jet about too so I do hope you’re comfortable travelling. Whilst our story will begin in Northern France, we’ll ride back and forth across Europe and even sail to The Holy Land on Crusade - there’ll be a nice stay in Cyprus too for those sun worshippers.
You'll enjoy the ride…
Alan McLean was born in Nuneaton and completed his studies in the historical city of Lincoln. He has worked in industries as diverse as Education, Signage, Cleaning and even Chimney Sweeping. Employed as a freelance writer for international ghost walking company, Mysterium Tours, McLean found himself exploring the darker chapters of European History.
McLean’s unique writing style makes the Past accessible by boldly embellishing interesting details, whilst simultaneously glossing over the mundane. His debut novel, “A Casual Historian presents The Early Plantagenets” is a book for people who like to buy History books but never normally finish reading them.
During the day, McLean can be found walking in the Staffordshire countryside with his wife Laura and his Border Collie, Loki. By moonlight though…expect to see this dark author prowling the marshlands with a shovel, looking to unearth skeletons from days gone by.
