Overview
This three-book collection brings together bestselling historian Dan Jones's most acclaimed works on the medieval world. Powers and Thrones sweeps across a thousand years of Western history, from the fall of Rome to the dawn of the Renaissance. The Templars uncovers the rise and brutal fall of history's most famous military order. The Hollow Crown plunges into the Wars of the Roses and the birth of Tudor England. Together, these volumes deliver page-turning, research-rich narrative history for readers who want scholarship without the dust — a superb gift for history buffs and book clubs alike.

About the Books
Each book in this collection tackles a different facet of the medieval world with Dan Jones's signature blend of rigorous research and propulsive storytelling. Powers and Thrones is his most ambitious work, tracing a millennium of European history through the lenses of commerce, conquest, and Christianity, showing how the West rebuilt itself from the ashes of Rome to become a dominant global force by the sixteenth century. It has been praised as one of the best popular histories of the Middle Ages available today. The Templars follows the meteoric rise of the Knights Templar, an order of warrior-monks who became the medieval world's first great multinational bank and military machine, before collapsing under royal greed and political intrigue in one of history's most dramatic downfalls; it became an instant New York Times bestseller upon release. The Hollow Crown closes out the set with a vivid account of the Wars of the Roses, the fifteenth-century conflict that saw the English crown change hands violently again and again before the Tudor dynasty finally emerged triumphant. Across all three books, Jones favors vivid character-driven narrative over dry chronology, drawing on primary sources to bring distant centuries to life. Readers who enjoy authors like Tom Holland, Alison Weir, or Mary Beard will find much to love here. Whether read individually or as a set, these books offer an accessible yet substantial entry point into medieval history that rewards both newcomers and seasoned readers of the period.
