Description
A.D. 449 marks a pivotal year in British history as two Germanic tribes, the Saxons and the Angles, arrive on its shores. Led by brothers Hengest and Horsa, they are invited to Britain by Wurtgern, king of the Britons, but soon turn against their hosts. The Saxons' victory over the Picts is followed by a campaign to conquer the rest of Britain, with the Angles establishing themselves in various regions. The division of land among the conquered territories gives rise to new kingdoms, including Anglia, Ceint, and Mierce. As the Saxons settle in Britain, they bring their own gods and magic, setting the stage for a complex and often tumultuous history. This book explores the early years of Saxon rule in Britain, shedding light on the events that shaped the country's future.
