With King Richard finally at rest, everything changed for Leicester City.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere, in his own words, King Richard III tells this, the most remarkable sporting story of all time – how 5,000-1 Premier League outsiders became champions: the goals, the games, the dressing-room banter. He gives us the Jamie Vardy story, from prosthetic-limb factory employee to the most celebrated striker this side of the River Soar; Mahrez, the great Muslim dynamo from Algeria, once stuck in the French seventh tier; the dark days of the sex video and the late December wobble; Lords Drinkwater, Albrighton and the great Tinkerman from Italy, all of them heroes of Shakespearean proportions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis isn’t a fairy-tale, this really happened. From the unsanctioned hand of a much-loved Royal, the greatest football book ever written.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis recreation of a true underdog story, filled with humour and the best of sportsmanship, is a testament to the power of belief and the magic of football. The autobiography of King Richard III, a symbol of royalty, is a biography that transcends the top echelons of literature, making it a must-read for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor fans of Matt Piper (Out of the Darkness), Jonathan Wilson (Inverting the Pyramid), and Simon Jordan (Be Careful What You Wish For).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Richard III, Read by Peter Joyce","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46889193832597,"sku":"9780008203528","price":22.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/3175\/9509\/files\/9780008203528_f9fcb9e5-ec0e-4f2b-81b0-8eb30d5cf97f.jpg?v=1776888489","url":"https:\/\/harpercollins.com.au\/products\/9780008203528","provider":"HarperCollins AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
