Thrilling adventure tale set in 10th century England. As the first
millennium closes, Anglo-Saxon England is gripped by fear and
expectation of the end of the world. But an ancient prophesy
foretells a hero, a man of destiny who will redeem the people. But
who is he, and can he be found in time, as Viking raiders plan
invasion and conquest? The second of his "Mercian Trilogy" series,
this new story by Martin Wall is based on two Anglo-Saxon sagas
which were lost after the Norman conquest --- the saga of Edmund
Ironside, and the saga of Edric Streona, the most dastardly villain
in English history. The darkest period of Anglo-Saxon times, the
disastrous reign of King Ethelred "the unready" forms the backdrop
for this epic tale of one man's quest as he traverses a country
stricken by internal division, intrigue, and invasion by the
Vikings.
