“A Story Destined for the Screen”
Step into a world where crowns are won with blood, and faith is the only shield against corruption. The Royal Order of the Last Coin is a story destined to ignite screens and capture hearts across the globe.
History, faith, and family legacy collide in Joyce Crawford’s The Royal Order of the Last Coin, a sweeping work of historical fiction rooted in the Burton family genealogy. Rich with battlefield valor, spiritual conflict, and royal intrigue, this story has all the elements of a gripping screen adaptation. One can easily imagine the banners of England waving across the cinematic canvas, the clash of swords echoing in Dolby surround, and the quiet, faith-filled moments of conscience standing as counterweights to the chaos of war.
A sweeping epic, a spiritual journey, and a tale of blood and belief—Crawford’s work is destined not just for bookshelves, but for the silver screen and beyond. The Royal Order is ready for its cinematic coronation. This novel marks the powerful first installment of the Faith of Our Fathers series.
Set in 14th century England, against the brutal backdrop of William Wallace’s execution and the reign of King Edward I, the novel follows Walter de Burton and his son Milton. Both serve the crown, yet their true conflict lies within: the struggle between loyalty to an earthly king and obedience to God. This tension—between honor, faith, and the cost of war—creates the kind of layered storytelling that streaming audiences crave today.
On screen, The Royal Order of the Last Coin would resonate with fans of Braveheart and Kingdom of Heaven, while offering something unique: a deeply human story of a knight’s inner battle to remain compassionate in an age of brutality. Crawford doesn’t shy away from the grit of medieval life—the executions, the bloodshed, the political games—but she also threads the story with scripture, conscience, and the enduring question of what true honor means.
This is a narrative crying out for adaptation, and Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, or even Apple TV+ would be ideal homes for it. The streaming era thrives on prestige dramas with strong historical roots, and this story offers both the scale of an epic and the intimacy of a father teaching his son. Audiences worldwide are eager for stories that combine history with moral depth, and The Royal Order of the Last Coin delivers on both fronts.
