Summary:

The locals all fall off their tavern stools with surprise when a strange figure arrives to the village. He says he is a knight, and he does have a magnificent horse and a gleaming silver sword. But he is wearing. . . a dress! Sir Ulrich has not dedicated his life to fighting for one woman - he is fighting for Venus, the goddess of love, and he will fight any knight in the land for her honour. Unfortunately, fighting in a silk dress is not so easy. An unusual tale, based on a real medieval knight, this story is full of Terry Deary's dark humour and dry wit. A village in Germany, 1227. Sir Ulric
