It is 1483, and Sir Thomas Lemuel Hawke, a Cornish knight, is about to ride into battle. On the eve of his departure, he composes a letter to his four young children, consisting of 20 virtues that provide instruction on how to live a noble life and on all the lessons, large and small, that he might have imparted to them himself were he not expecting to die on the battlefield.

"Why am I alive? Where was I before I was born? What will happen to me when I die? Whatever well our lives are drawn from, it is deep, wild, mysterious, and unknowable...."

Rules for a Knight is many things: a code of ethics; an intimate record of a lifelong quest; a careful recounting of a knight's hardest won lessons, deepest aspirations, and most richly instructive failures; and an artifact, a relic of a father's exquisite love.

Drawing on the ancient teachings of Eastern and Western philosophy and religion, on literature and poetry, and on the great spiritual and political writings of our time, Ethan Hawke has written a parable that - in the story of a young man's journey toward a life of authenticity and meaning - captures the instinctive movement of the heart toward truth and beauty. Rules for a Knight has the appeal of Arthurian legend; the economy of Aesop; and the vitality, intelligence, and risk-taking that could emanate only from Ethan Hawke.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[Narrator Alessandro] Nivola uses grandfatherly tones - melodious, deep, and enchanting - to draw listeners in. Using lyrical tones, he BECOMES the knight who writes his timeless advice for his sleeping heirs." (AudioFile)

Words to live by and a great story.
The last story The 44 point red deer was especially moving.
I also like knowing where the words came from.

Loved this book. Was told to read it by multiple people that I think highly of. I see why. Learn this and pass it on... Very good read! Short book, I'll listen to it and read it over and over again.

Simply amazing

This book is very simple, down to earth and easy to read. It addresses issues of conduct and character in a way that is relevant for anyone who reads it. I really enjoyed reading it to my children and they really enjoyed listening to it.

Simply Excellent!

At first I was apprehensive about getting this book because it was so short. I didn't want to spend money on something that I would be done with in one sitting. However, this book is so interesting with how it portrays the rules of a knight. But it holds true in our everyday lives. Not only do I need to listen to this book a second time, but I need to take notes! Bravo!

Short but very sweet.

I normally only do audio books if read by author but loved this one read by Alessandro. I’ve read the book a few times and wished to knock it out again in audio form and trilled to see it was only a 2 hr play.

Great book, message, and vibe. I received the book as a gift and purchased the book as a gift for many.

Great book and quick play

This book is great for anyone. It teaches principles that everyone aspiring to be a better person should live by. My wife and I even read the hardcover version of this book to our children for them to learn from the guidelines and direction given in these teachings and rules.

Awesome!!!

Simple, elegant, and straightforward. Meaningful, concise, and moving. This book uses a entertaining narrative to convey important messages about what it is to be a mature and thoughtful human being.

Highly recommended!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Rules for a Knight?

The secret is: there is no secret.

What does Alessandro Nivola bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Good voices and a consistent and appropriate accent.

If you could rename Rules for a Knight, what would you call it?

Rules for humanity.

Enjoyable uplifting book with a story of a Knight giving teachings through parable for his children before he goes to battle. This book was recommended by Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki as must read spiritual book and I would agree. Divided into short chapters makes a good inspiration read every now & then

Rarely does an audiobook, long where the narrator and the storyline fuse so beautifully.
Mr.Hawks treatise on what true Nobility looks like, lives like and speaks like, transcend's any gender a child maybe.

while it is designed to pass on and impart Immortal wisdom from father her grandfather to their offspring the advice Cobble together from different guises of various mythologies serves as a wonderful guide for anyone.

the tone and tenor of the narrator however is what knocks this out of the park. the gravitas of his voice conveys the weight of the wisdom being imparted, combine this with a burning campfire and you're ready to navigate some of the biggest choices one may Ponder about ones life, and how they may live it with Nobility.

Heart achingly beautiful performance
