Envoy of Jerusalem: Balian D'Ibelin and the Third Crusade (Balian D'Ibelin and the Kingdom of Jerusalem) by Helena P Schrader is a historical fiction book. Envoy of Jerusalem: Balian D'Ibelin and the Third Crusade (Balian D'Ibelin and the Kingdom of Jerusalem) by Helena P Schrader is a book that will appeal to an audience made up of adults and young adults who enjoy historical fiction on the crusades. Envoy of Jerusalem: Balian D'Ibelin and the Third Crusade (Balian D'Ibelin and the Kingdom of Jerusalem) by Helena P Schrader is the third book in the biographical novel series about Balian d'Ibelin. Envoy of Jerusalem: Balian D'Ibelin and the Third Crusade (Balian D'Ibelin and the Kingdom of Jerusalem) by Helena P Schrader follows the character known as Balian d'Ibelin throughout his life.

The first thing I noticed about Envoy of Jerusalem: Balian D'Ibelin and the Third Crusade (Balian D'Ibelin and the Kingdom of Jerusalem) by Helena P Schrader was the amazing cover. I really liked the fact that the cover had a picture of Balian d'Ibelin as it allowed me to have a clear picture of what he looked like while I read the book. The second thing I loved about Balian d'Ibelin was the genealogical charts and maps at the beginning of the book as they helped me to understand where the events took place and the relations of characters to each other. Helena P Schrader did such as amazing job in writing that at times I was not entirely sure if what I was reading was fiction or history. My favorite character in The first thing I noticed about Envoy of Jerusalem: Balian D'Ibelin and the Third Crusade (Balian D'Ibelin and the Kingdom of Jerusalem) by Helena P Schrader was the dowager queen in the beginning of the book she became my favorite due to the sympathy she showed to her escort Sir Bartholomew.
