Produktbeschreibung
Aurelius Ambrosius is the rightful king of Britannia. He has built up an army like the Roman legions of old, but he knows it is not enough. If he is to win the support of his fellow Britons he must find the Sword of Albion to prove his right to the kingship. But others are looking for that sword, among them, the "proud tyrant", Vortigern. Aurelius goes on a perilous quest through crumbling Roman cities, the rugged Pennines and Angle-occupied territory, while Vortigern tries everything to stop him, including making a fake sword, but while these two Britons are battling for supremacy, the Angles and Saxons, led by Hengest, are invading from the North Sea.
Autorenporträt
Christopher Webster was brought up in Conisbrough, which is well-known for its magnificent castle. The castle and its link with Hengest provided the inspiration for this pentalogy. Another inspiration was studying English at university, particularly the study of Anglo-Saxon. His first publication was Poetry Through Humour and Horror. This was followed by many more educational texts as well as a wide range of fiction, drama and poetry. He is married to a Filipina, has four children, and is currently a teacher in a European school.
