Produktbeschreibung

SHORTLISTED FOR THE EAST ANGLIAN BOOK AWARDS



HOW DARK WERE THE DARK AGES? JOSS IS ABOUT TO FIND OUT...

'The Vikings are better armed than we are. They have long, heavy axes that can take a man's head from his shoulder.

'I know this because I see it happen.'

When his mum burns down their house on the Whitehorse estate, sixteen-year-old Joss is sent to live in a sleepy Suffolk village.

The place is steeped in history, as Joss learns when a bike accident pitches him back more than 1,000 years to an Anglo-Saxon village. That history also tells him his new friends are in mortal peril from bloodthirsty invaders. Can he warn their ruler, King Edmund, in time?

And will he ever get home?

Autorenporträt

As an RAF child, K.A. Hayton grew up in various parts of Europe, arriving in England just in time for the winter of discontent. She spent her first year of an English degree at Sheffield University studying Anglo-Saxon poetry, which sparked an enduring interest in the Dark Ages. She lives in rural Suffolk, very close to the Anglo-Saxon burial site of Sutton Hoo, where she is a keen runner, sea-swimmer and supporter of Ipswich Town FC. The Other Side of the Whale Road is her first novel.
