J. Porter has written a story of one battle - Haedfeld - which will change the face of England. And written it very well indeed, for the dialogue is sharp and whilst the day-to-day descriptions are fairly sparse, the telling of the battle is gripping." HISTORICAL NOVELS REVIEW"M J Porter brings the period to life that you feel you are really part of the story." Amazon Reviewer"First class story combining historical facts and fiction well in a wonderful novel." Amazon Reviewer"Another book on the Dark Ages, written in an interesting style of first-person, taking in the views of each of the lead characters from their perspective."
