I must admit to being very intruigued by this band of warrior monks for some time. I have read just about every book on the subject that my local library (and its offshoots) possess, in addition to supplementing my own personal library. However, nothing can compere with the plethora of tomes written on the subject.
Templars in Fiction:
Robyn Young has written a triology on the Templars - Brethern, Crusade & Requiem.
Micheal Jecks has written about 30 books with the Templars (I am a bit biased as he is one of my favourite authors).
Paul Christopher -The Sword of the Templars, The Templar Throne, The Templar Conspiracy and The Templar Cross (in no particular order).
Raymond Khoury - The Last Templar, The Sanctuary, & Templar Salvation.
Jan Guillou - The Road to Jerusalem, The Knight Templar & The Kingdom at the end of the road (also made into a film - Arn).
Steve Berry - The Templar Legacy.
Umberto Eco - Foucault's Pendulum.
Paul Doherty - The Templar & The Templar Magician.
William Watson - Last of the Templars.
