A review by quodfelix
The Brethren by Robert Merle

5.0

Hooray! Set during the religious wars of France, this series has opened with some intriguing characters and some good tales of derring-do. There's a strong thread of good vs. evil, but an appreciation that it is not always easy to know. Friendships run strong. Seeds of some excellent future conflicts have been sown, and I am looking forward to reading the sequels (11 of them!)
