England’s Martyr

Sat, 11 Nov 2023 06:22:00 +0000

1010 AD: England is dying, its people brutalized and its lands ravaged after wave after wave of Norse invaders. King Ethelred does little but sit on his throne, haunted by his troubled past and easy prey for his manipulative advisors, leaving his subjects to fend for themselves. Unwilling to stand by and do nothing, a famous Ealdorman, Ulfcytel of Eastengle, has gathered an army, ready to fight and die rather than capitulate to the latest invader: a brutal “Jomsviking” warlord known as Thorkell the Tall. To Ulfcytel’s surprise, his army is soon joined by a stranger from the south, Alaric, who has rushed to assist him in the hope that England might finally prevail. Unbeknownst to Alaric and Ulfcytel, their efforts to save their people have gained the attention of their disturbed and ill-advised king, setting in motion a chain of events that they, and all England, can only hope to endure. $2.99 on Kindle

Of course, nothing ever goes quite as planned.

1483. King Edward IV is dead. The Woodvilles have the Great Seal—and the treasury.

In the north Richard Duke of Gloucester receives word of his brother’s unexpected death from Lord Hastings, who advises him to get to London and take possession of the new young King.

Riding into Northampton, Anthony Woodville, guardian of Edward V, is implicated in a plot to ambush Richard upon the road. He is arrested and Edward V taken into care by Gloucester and the flamboyant and persuasive Duke of Buckingham.

Once they reach London, Buckingham glibly suggests that the young King be sent to the Tower of London ‘for his own safety.’

Plans for the Coronation progress as expected—and then Bishop Stillington comes to Richard with a shocking revelation.

What the Bishop imparts will set the Wheel of Fortune spinning, dooming a young boy and setting Richard of Gloucester on the road to Kingship…and tragedy at Bosworth Field. $0.99 on Kindle.
