König, Politiker, Krieger, Eroberer - Richard Löwenherz! 1189. Endlich regiert Richard Löwenherz als König über England. Noch muss er in seinem eigenen Königreich für Ordnung sorgen, bald jedoch bereitet er einen neuen Kriegszug vor. Jerusalem, das Heilige Land, soll aus der Hand der Muslime befreit werden. Gemeinsam mit seinem treuen Diener Ferdia macht sich Löwenherz auf den beschwerlichen Weg ins Heilige Land. Dort erwartet sie ein gnadenloser Krieg - und Saladin, der berühmte Anführer der Sarazenen, der die Stadt einst von den Christen eroberte.

1179: Heinrich II. Plantagenet herrscht über England und Teile Frankreichs. In seinem Haus aber herrscht Unruhe, sogar zur Rebellion kommt es. Ausgerechnet Ferdia, ein irischer Adliger, der als Geisel an den Hof kam, rettet seinem Sohn Richard das Leben. Zum Dank wird er Richards Knappe und darf diesen fortan in den Krieg begleiten. Sie kämpfen hart und siegen, und Richard macht sich als Löwenherz einen Namen. Doch bald erkennt Ferdia: Sein Herr schwebt erneut in Gefahr, denn der Ruhm sorgt für Neider, auch in Richards eigener Familie.
