Infos

After 400 years of occupation the Romans have withdrawn from Britain. Old insular tribal influences once again begin to reemerge within the disorder that follows. More importantly outsiders looking on, sense an opportunity and begin to slowly converge on the islands. From the east come the Germanic tribes; Angles, Jutes, Saxons, seeking land and plunder. From the west come the Scotti, sensing the opportunity for pillage. For the first time in almost four centuries, Britain must stand alone.This is the story of different groups of native Britons at this moment in our history. Parentless children coping in a perilous land, tribal leaders attempting to achieve unity and bands of warriors fighting to push back the invader while at the same time attempting to quell internal rivalries.The novel also encompasses a different slant on the legend of Arthur and features other, associated characters of the time. There are elements of magic at work within this society, both good and evil, as well as being found in the ancient landscape. The characters must travel throughout southern and western Britain as they seek a mystical element forged before time; something that legend has it will unite the diverse tribes and establish a new nation.
