<p><strong>Simon Templar returns to battle Rayt Marius in this early Saint adventure of vengeance, danger, and outlaw justice.</strong> In <strong><em>Knight Templar</em></strong>, also published as <strong><em>The Avenging Saint</em></strong>, Leslie Charteris sends his famous rogue hero back into conflict with one of his deadliest enemies: an arms dealer whose schemes have already brought death and whose reach makes him a threat far beyond ordinary crime. Simon Templar is not a policeman, not a detective in the usual sense, and not a respectable guardian of the law. He is the Saint: debonair, reckless, dangerous, and willing to fight corrupt men with methods they understand.</p><p>First published in 1930, <strong><em>Knight Templar</em></strong> belongs to the formative years of the long-running Saint series, when Charteris's hero was still especially close to the pulp adventurer and gentleman outlaw: witty, romantic, violent when necessary, and guided by his own fierce code. The novel continues the struggle against Marius from <strong><em>The Last Hero</em></strong>, making it an important title for readers following the early Saint sequence as well as for fans of classic crime-adventure. For readers of Leslie Charteris, Simon Templar, vintage thrillers, gentleman-rogue fiction, early twentieth-century adventure, and classic crime stories, <strong><em>Knight Templar, or The Avenging Saint</em></strong> is a fast, stylish Positronic Book entry in one of the great popular adventure series.
