A gripping, action-packed historical tale set in the world of Matthew Harffy's Bernicia Chronicles.


AD 630, Anglo-Saxon Britain. Winter grips the land in its icy fist. Terror stalks the hills, moors and marshes of Bernicia. Livestock and men have been found ripped asunder, their bones gnawed, flesh gorged upon. People cower in their halls in fear of the monster that prowls the night.

King Edwin sends his champions, Bassus and Octa, and band of trusted thegns to hunt down the beast and to rid his people of this evil, but the warriors soon question whether they are the hunters or the prey.

Death follows them as they head deeper into the ice-rimed marshes, and there is only one ending for the mission: a welter of blood to sow the seeds of a tale that will echo down through the ages.

The epic story of warlord Beobrand and his life of battle and bloodshed, guile and glory, the Bernicia Chronicles are perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and David Gemmell.
