The Ring of Kékkő Castle (Hungarian-Ottoman War Series Book 2)

Richly Dazzling Swashbuckler in a Mysterious Time and Place
This yet-undiscovered jewel of an adventure novel transports us to the little known lands of Hungary and Transylvania during the Ottoman Wars. Every paragraph sparkles with nuance and historical detail. The author immerses us in intrigue as the likeable hero journeys through wild lands. Saxon profiteers, an Ottoman turncoat, freebooters, spies for religious orders and royal families, and an abundance of self-serving warlords all scheme to hinder the multilingual swordsman hero.The author’s love for his homeland shines through as he crafts an adventure rich with culture and detail. On one level it is a fun read, full of daring adventure and wit. On another level it weaves us into the belief systems and mindsets of competing religions and social orders. We learn the homey touches of life for rich and poor in these legendary lands so near, and yet so far, from the English language reader.I encourage lovers of both history and adventure to join me in discovering this writer and his tales. Too often we hesitate to try a new author. But both genius for an intriguing tale, and sheer mastery of historical detail shine in this yet-undiscovered work. It’s thrilling to be among the first to “latch onto” an new author. Join me in enjoying this one!

Amazing romanticized story of the resistance of the Hungarian and Central European people!
Gabor is an amazing writer! His books in English fill a huge void in the history of Europe between the XIVth and XIXth centuries. The resistance of central and south Eastern European people to Turkish invasion led by the hungarian and polish kingdoms led to the preservation of Christian and free world. Current information on the subject does not even mention it, giving all the credit to the Habsburg and the French, who’s greed and local rivalries nearly caused the destruction of the greatest civilization created in human history. Please read his books and spread the news about him!
