The next thrilling adventure, all NEW from MJ Porter Icel is a lone
wolf no more... Oath sworn to Wiglaf, King of Mercia and
acknowledged as a member of Ealdorman AElfstan's warrior band, Icel
continues to forge his own destiny on the path to becoming the
Warrior of Mercia. With King Ecgberht of Wessex defeated and
Londonium back under Mercian control, the Wessex invasion of Mercia
is over. But the Wessex king was never Mercia's only enemy. An

Mercia's eastern borders. Icel must journey to the kingdom of the
East Angles and unite against a common enemy to ensure Mercia's
hard-won freedom prevails. Praise for MJ Porter 'Immediate and
