AD 597. It’s not every day that ghosts of the long-dead return without warning, to the grieving lives they once left behind. This was such a day.For Alric and his closest companions, homecoming in C7th Saxon Kingdom of Cantia is both the most joyous yet also the hardest experience of all, made even more difficult by an unexpected arrival from Rome. Over the next five decades, fulfilling the Pope’s mission has no shortage of opposition: alliances, romance, warring kingdoms, dynastic rivalries, life and death challenges, successions, power struggles – and most of all, lasting friendships.Alric and his companions face many challenges against the new religion they bring: soothsayers, powerful Saxon Earls, and not least, an encounter with the Bishops of the British Kingdoms. Now Alric arrives at a crossroads, awaiting the last opportunity for his final Quest.
