Evocative, stirring saga ringing with the haunting echoes of traditional Anglo-Saxon heroic poetry. Set in early 11th century England, this is the story of Godwin Wulfnothson, later to become the powerful Earl of Wessex.
Here a young Godwin comes of age in company with his lord and heart-brother, Anglo-Saxon warrior-prince, Edmund "ironside", the two constantly on the move as they engage in vicious, bloody guerilla warfare against increasing numbers of Viking invaders and struggle to return England to the glory days of Alfred the Great.
