Announcing the publication of a swashbuckling new novel about Hereward the Wake, and two more to come
United Kingdom of Great Britain & N. Ireland (Press Release) May 4, 2008 --
England, 1067: a conquered land.
After thirteen years in exile, the outlaw Hereward Askilsson returns home to a country groaning under Norman rule. When his brother is murdered by the steward of a local baron, he takes a swift and savage vengeance, and quickly becomes a leader of the English resistance: but it is a perilous life. He will need all his wits and courage, merely to survive.
This exciting new novel is the first part of a trilogy about one of England's greatest heroes. Set in an authentically realised eleventh century world, it is nevertheless tinged with the fantastic, drawing on many other legends and folktales of the Fen country where Hereward lived and fought. The second part, Hereward: The Fury of the Northmen will follow later this year, and Hereward: Doom of Battle is due in 2009.
Hereward: Sons of the White Dragon is available from Amazon and many other online outlets.
