    About this series

    This is a novel about a young Saxon who gets caught up in a conspiracy to overthrow the King of England. The book is set in England in the year 937. King Athelstan is on the throne but his kingdom is threatened by a coalition of two invading armies. Osmund is sent to protect the Kings brother but there is a deadly plot. Betrayal and lies abound and Osmund leaves the country for his own safety. He takes up with a Viking longship and heads to the Mediterranean and returns to England three years later after surviving a great storm at sea. He endures adventures and battles and an assassination attempt. He is saved by a young woman from a tribe of ancient Britons who he finds he has feelings for. Finally the fight for the very lifeblood of England is fought out at the Battle of Brunanburh. Can Osmund get close enough to the king to tell him the truth about the plot and the whereabouts of the kings brother Edwin and can he fight in the battle for his own honour and that of Edwin the Atheling?

      As a young boy he was sent to sea to be slain by his enemies who had killed his family and usurped his throne. Saved by a set of fortunate circumstances and took in as a foster son he was brought to England in the early days of Saxon rule. He was raised in ignorance of his birthright. As a man he grew into a giant, gentle by nature, but one not to be taken lightly. Being a humble and hard working man he was liked by all he came into contact with but the secret of his true bloodline was kept from him. One day he was recognised by an outlander and his childhood enemies become aware that he was still alive, and therefore a threat, so they set out to finish him once and for all. Can Havelok overcome all that is thrown at him, and return to his homeland and inheritance.
