Produktbeschreibung
The tenth century in England; a century of conflict; a century of war and a century dominated by the struggle for rule over the realm. The contenders; the Anglo-Saxons, the Vikings and the Danes. They all ruled over part of the country, they all wanted more, they all wanted to be the ultimate power, the rulers, the king makers. But only the strongest could ultimately rule over all the land, only the most tenacious could shed sufficient blood to overcome the others. Death was treated with contempt, it had no meaning, it was a sacrifice that all participants were willing to pay to achieve the ultimate goal; VICTORY. The century threw up heroes, men of immense bravery, men who would become legends. The century was replete with monarchs who hurled themselves into the fray for the chance to be; The King of all England. This book is the story of the rulers and their protectors, the time lines are accurate and as recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles; the Kings and Queens are real; their characterisations and their protectors are possible but unrecorded; the tenth century, a time when the green fields of England were stained red with blood.
