Author(s): Iggulden, Conn
'I have broken my vows. I have murdered innocents. I have trod down the soil over their dead face with my bare heels, and only the moon as witness. I have loved a woman and she ruined me. I have loved a king and yet I ruined him.'
The year is 937. England is a nation divided, ruled by minor kings and Viking lords. Each vies for land and power. The Wessex king thelstan, grandson of Alfred the Great, is readying himself to throw a spear into the north.
Behind him stands Dunstan, the man who will control the destiny of the next seven kings of England, and the fate of an entire nation.
Welcome to the original game for the English throne.
