Description

King Aethelred the Unready's Kingdom of the English is threatened by the Viking invasion of 991AD. Olaf Tryggvason and his fleet of Viking warships snap at the coastal edges, while Sweyn Forkbeard, King of the Danes, lands in East Anglia with an army of battle-hardened warriors. Ealdorman Byrhtnoth of Essex must stand against them, forging his legend in the blood of his deadly enemies. By his side, Beornoth, a brutal warrior and savage Saxon fighter, is torn between his need to protect his loved ones and his duty to fight for his Lord. As the Vikings raid and slaughter, Beornoth is forced to fight for the survival of his oath sworn brothers, his Lord, and the Kingdom itself. The fate of the Kingdom hangs in the balance, leading to the fateful Battle of Maldon. This is a thrilling story of war, vengeance, and visceral combat, set against the backdrop of one of the most famous battles of the Viking Age.
