Synopsis
In 1227 Germany, Sir Ulrich of Bavaria arrives in a quiet village, astonishing locals with his deadly sword, noble steed, and green silk dress. Devoted to Venus, the goddess of love, he challenges any man to fight for her honour. Who will accept this unusual knight's challenge? Based on a true story, this tale is filled with Terry Deary's dark humour and dry wit.
