Book excerpt: 'The Truce of God' is a historical fiction novel written by George Henry Miles. Set in the Middle Ages, the story unfolds during a time of chaos and violence after the fall of the Roman Empire. The barbarian invasions threatened to bring about a new era of cruelty, with the sword as the only source of power. But, due to the regenerating influence of Christianity, a few warrior kings, such as Theodoric, Charlemagne, and Luitprand, emerged who used the sword for just and decent purposes, intending to bring some peace to the world.
