Bridging the gap between 'Game of Thrones' and Bernard Cornwell
comes the second chapter in James Wilde's epic adventure of
betrayal, battle and bloodshed . . . It is AD 367, and Roman
Britain has fallen to the vast barbarian horde which has invaded
from the north. Towns burn, the land is ravaged and the few
survivors flee. The army of Rome - once the most effective fighting
force in the world - has been broken, its spirit lost and its
remaining troops shattered. Yet for all the darkness, there is
hope. And it rests with one man. His name is Lucanus who they call
the Wolf. He is a warrior, and he wears the ancient crown of the
great war leader, Pendragon, and he wields a sword bestowed upon
him by the druids. With a small band of trusted followers, Lucanus
ventures south to Londinium where he hopes to bring together an
army and make a defiant stand against the invader. But within the
walls of that great city there are others waiting on his arrival -
hidden enemies who want more than anything to possess the great
secret that has been entrusted to his care. To seize it would give
them power beyond imagining. To protect it will require bravery and
sacrifice beyond measure. And to lose it would mean the end of
everything worth fighting for. Before Camelot. Before Excalibur.
Before all you know of King Arthur. Here is the beginning of that
legend . . .
