NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “The great Crusader king Richard the Lionheart comes alive in all his complex splendor in this masterpiece of medieval tapestry.”—Margaret George A.D. 1189. After the death of his father, Henry II, and the early demise of two of his brothers, Richard is crowned King of England and immediately sets off for the Holy Land. This is the Third Crusade, marked by internecine warfare among the Christians and extraordinary campaigns against the Saracens. Richard’s surviving brother, the younger John, is left behind—and conspires with the French king to steal his brother’s throne. Only their mother, Eleanor of Aquitaine, now freed from decades of captivity, remains to protect Richard’s interests and secure his destiny. In this engrossing saga, Sharon Kay Penman delivers a novel of passion, intrigue, battle, and deceit. Lionheart is a sweeping tale of a heroic figure—feared by his enemies and beloved by those he commanded—who became a legend in his own lifetime. “[Sharon Kay] Penman displays her usual grasp of sweeping historical events as well as an uncanny ability to get inside the hearts and minds of her real-life characters. Her reputation for character-driven, solidly detailed historicals is richly deserved.”—Booklist “The beautifully described settings and the characters’ interactions are simply outstanding.”—The Historical Novels Review “Penman takes historical writing to a whole new level.”—The Sacramento Bee “[A] gritty, unsentimental, and richly detailed epic.”—Publishers Weekly Don’t miss the exclusive conversation between Sharon Kay Penman and Margaret George at the back of the book.

LIONHEART is an inspiring story of love, forgiveness, and the power of music. David Francisco grew up living a comfortable, middle-class American life in Knoxville, Tennessee. He played sports and music and was captain of both his high school soccer team and the marching band. He later attended the University of Tennessee and graduated with a degree in electrical engineering in 2014-but music was his real passion.David spent the next two years recording songs, teaching piano and guitar lessons, playing in a church band on Sunday mornings, and producing and performing his own music. In 2016, he enrolled in the prestigious Blackbird Academy in Nashville.Then, in April 2016, while riding his bicycle in Nashville, Tennessee, David was hit by a distracted driver. Doctors told him he would never walk again. His life had changed forever. David thought to himself: What if I am in pain for the rest of my life? What could I offer the world like this? Will I ever get better?LIONHEART is the richly detailed and intimate account of David's crash, recovery, and return to music: from thinking he lost everything, to appearing on national television (twice), to marrying his soulmate, Kristi-to finding a life and purpose beyond his wildest imagination.In addition, LIONHEART the book is unique in that there is an accompanying album of the same name. In fact, many chapters of the book are song titles-and the album order follows the order of the chapters of the book. Think of LIONHEART, the book, as a souped-up Behind the Music for the album! The book also includes sections titled "The Making of..." that provide background and insight into how and why David wrote each of the 11 songs on the album. Why did he make the choices he made as he wrote and recorded LIONHEART? What instruments did he use on "Keep the Faith"? What was the inspiration for "Love Is What Keep Us Alive"? Who inspired "She Makes Me Want to Sing"? How did the rap verse in "FaceTime Lover" come together? LIONHEART-the book and the album-are so much more than a simple recounting of David's post-crash odyssey. LIONHEART is a movement that aims to empower people to find purpose.
