Grade 5-9ûGreen Jasper begins where Blood Red Horse (Walker, 2005) ended.
With King Richard imprisoned and supposed dead, there is turmoil in
England in the 12th century. Will and Gavin de Granville have returned
from the crusade older, wiser, and scarred from battle, Gavin having
lost an arm. His betrothed, Ellie, has waited patiently for their return
and now is preparing for her marriage. The ceremony is disrupted by
Constable de Scabious and his men, who have spread rumors that King
Richard is dead and that his brother John has taken the throne. When
Ellie is kidnapped and taken to de Scabious’s castle, Will feels that
his duty is to rescue her while Gavin, who has been injured again, believes
that they must be more cautious. Ellie, while waiting and hoping for
rescue, holds on to her green jasper necklace, a wedding gift from Gavin
that represents faith. Throughout this second adventure of the de Granvilles,
loyalties are divided, conflicts arise, and villagers are unsure whom
they can trust. Hosanna, the blood red horse, plays an important role
in tying the characters together and aiding the knights in their quest
to protect the king and rescue the woman they love. Although this action-packed
novel can be read alone, it is much more enjoyable if read in sequence.
