Warlord Beobrand finds himself besieged in a mighty fortress in this action-packed Dark Ages adventure set in Anglo-Saxon Britain.

AD 647. War hangs heavy in the hot summer air as Penda of Mercia marches into the northern kingdom of Bernicia. Caught unawares, the Bernician forces are besieged within the great fortress of Bebbanburg.

It falls to warlord Beobrand of Ubbanford to mount the stronghold's defence, but even while battle rages, powerful enemies seek long-desired vengeance against him. As unknown assassins close in, Beobrand must also struggle with conflicting oaths and the dreadful pull of a love that threatens to destroy everything he holds dear.

With Northumbria's future in jeopardy, can Beobrand withstand the powers that beset him and find a path to victory against all odds?

The epic story of warlord Beobrand and his life of battle and bloodshed, guile and glory, the Bernicia Chronicles are perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and David Gemmell.
