Arthur and the Britons are trying to push back the Saxon hoardes.
An entertaining and believable retelling of the Arthur Legend.
You can feel the tension anxiety and fear in the pages as Arthur seeks to bring the Saxons to battle without being overwelmed and on unfamiliar territory.
Live through the terror relief and exhaustion of battle as shield walls clash in a violent shoving match as each side seeks to break the other which will lead to slaughter and mayhem.
Readers of Benard Cornwall and Mathew Haffry will enjoy the battle scenes portrayed by the author.

The second instalment in the series follows Arthur across Britain in search of his destiny. The book is one of Britain trying to fight back against the Saxon hoards from across the sea, with Arthur right in the thick of it. Bravery, betrayal, magic, brotherhood abut above all, love. In true Gibbons fashion, heavy on the battle depictions with no filter on the details! Fantastic!

A great read from start to finish and I can’t wait for the next one.

An irresistible slice of escapism and a joy to read. Compelling, absorbing and highly entertaining. Fast-moving and fun! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ loved all the action!

My only complaint about this book is I have to wait until l late November to get the audiobook!!
Bloody good in every sense of the word

This uses the historical adventure element perfectly, I loved the use of King Arthur and how everything worked in the story being told. Peter Gibbons has a strong style for the genre and how I was expecting the characters to work. I really enjoyed how good this worked with the series and other book that I read in this series.
