Tom is back, this time as squire to Henry, Duke of Lancaster, and on his way to France as part of the English army fighting the French. As ever, Tom finds himself in unexpected places and meeting unexpected people - from leaving a tower by a lavatory, to an encounter with the Pope! These new adventures are as fun-filled and action-packed as ever. It was shortlisted for the Whitbread Children's Book of the Year 2001. (10+)
