King Eadred of the English has just died and Caedmon, newly appointed thegn, is charged with assuring the King's heir and nephew, Eadwig, successfully rises to the position.
But Eadwig's accession isn't the choice of many English ealdormen, and Caedmon's promise of loyalty may just bring him to destruction. Eadwig's reign is the harbinger of discontent, betrayal, and bloody family rivalries that will span until Englaland is no longer under Saxon control.
This saga chronicles Caedmon's life as thegn, reliving his most vital memories of the last of the Anglo-Saxon kings.

Owain Glyn Dwr ap Gryffud, the last true Prince of Wales fights to maintain his nations right to sovereignty from the oppression of the English. A desperate power play ensues between Owain, an experienced leader and statesman, and Henry of Monmouth, the English crown prince, a barely battle tested twenty year old with an under manned, under funded army. Equally stubborn and cunning, both men know what it takes to destroy the other, but can they rally their supporters in time before the other makes his next move? Owain is past fifty, with a wife and grown children and grandchildren. He believes in Welsh independence and wants to liberate his people. But he's rapidly losing funds, and the faith of his own army, as the sieges wear on. Henry is twenty years old, with enough learning to lead an army, but relatively little practice. After suffering a disfiguring injury in his first battle, he's desperate to prove himself, and crush the Welsh resistance.
