Write-up from the back of the paperback ~

Warriors of the Hidden Ways - An elite order of warrior-priest forged in the terror of the Crusades, the Knights Templar amassed knowledge and wealth enough to challenge the power of kings and popes. Seven hundred years after they were betrayed, mystery and wonder still surround the Templars' history. What mystic forces did they conquer in the Holy Land? How did their fleet vanish - and where did it go? What treasures did the fugitive Knights bear into the Unknown? And are the Templars part of the past - or are they still among us, shadowy magicians working their will on the World?

Secrets of the Templars - Continuing the explorations of her acclaimed collection Tales of the Knights Templar, Katherine Kurtz, author of the classic Deryni series, presents eleven original stories that further delve into the myths of the holy fraternity. While the truth behind the Templars may never be fully known, their legends will never die.
