Heavy is the head that wears the crown.
Northumbria, AD 864. Viking warlordRagnar Lothbrok is captured and killed in brutal fashion, an event that will shape the future of the nation for decades to come.
Mercia, AD 868. Alfred, son of Wessex and heir to the throne, draws his first blood on the battlefield. It will not be his last.
A devastating scourge from the north is coming to Britain, one that will bring armies and entire kingdoms to their knees. Traveling along the whale road in their feared longships, the Great Heathen Army move fast, striking with a savagery unmatched, in a seemingly unstoppable tide of blood and iron.
One inexperienced warrior will prove the difference, a young man who will lead from the front and, in time, aspire to become the savior of the Saxons . . . Alfred the Great.
A totally enrapturing historical adventure following the life of one of Britain's most important ever kings, perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Simon Scarrow.
