AD 647. Anglo-Saxon Britain. Greed and ambition threaten to tear the north apart. War rages between the two kingdoms of Northumbria. Kin is pitted against kin and friend becomes foe as ambitious kings vie for supremacy. When Beobrand travels south into East Angeln to rescue a friend, he unwittingly tilts the balance of power in the north, setting in motion events that will lead to a climactic confrontation between Oswiu of Bernicia and Oswine of Deira. While the lord of Ubbanford is entangled in the clash of kings, his most trusted warrior, Cynan, finds himself on his own quest, called to the aid of someone he thought never to see again. Riding into the mountainous region of Rheged, Cynan faces implacable enemies who would do anything to further their own ends. Forced to confront their pasts, and with death and betrayal at every turn, both Beobrand and Cynan have their loyalties tested to breaking point. Who will survive the battle for a united Northumbria, and who will pay the ultimate price for lord and land? Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

This is the eighth book of this successful series, but the first i have read and there are numerous references to previous experiences and incidents that have happened to the characters, but this in no way spoilt my enjoyment of this excellent book, in fact it made me want read the earlier books. Well written and researched with terrific characterisation, and a good mix of real and fictional characters, atmospheric descriptive and engaging with a real feel and sense for time and place. Gripping from first to last page with a reasonable amount of descriptive exciting action scenes.
Totally recommended. (
