About this listen
Number one best seller in Norse historical fiction in UK, Canada, and Australia!
The old world is burning.
A hero will rise from its ash.
Thirty years passed since Britannia voted to throw off the Roman yoke. Now, the old world crumbles. Pirates roam the seas, bandits threaten the highways, and barbarian refugees from the east arrive on Britannia's shores, uninvited. The rich profit from the chaos, while the poor suffer. A new Dark Age is approaching - but all is not lost.
Ash is a Seaborn, a Saxon child found on the beach with nothing but a precious stone at his neck and a memory of a distant war from which his people have fled. Raised on the estate of a Briton nobleman, trained in warfare and ancient knowledge, he soon becomes embroiled in the machinations and intrigues at the court of Wortigern, the Dux of Londinium, a struggle that is about to determine the future of all Britannia.
A child of Saxon blood, an heir to Roman family, his is a destiny like no other: To join the two races and forge a new world from the ruins of the old.

Shedding light on the dark
A great story which tackles that transition period between the romano-british and the ascendency of the Saxons. Imaginative and some cleverly crafted characters and dialogue which gained pace through the novel. The names, tribes and places used had me scrambling to my books to learn more, all to no avail so far. An historical note from the author at the end would have been the icing on the cake!
I'm looking forward to the next installment!

I have read a lot of books from this era, and this was a good version, well read and look forward to the next instalment.
I received a free copy of this audiobook from AudiobookBoom in exchange for an honest review.
