Beornoth's last stand against the tide of history and crushing Viking invasion.

1004 AD
The fate of a fractured and embattled nation hangs by a thread. Eadric Streona grows in power, controlling an even-weaker King Aethelred the Unready. No man dares to stand to oppose him.

King Sweyn Forkbeard of Norway has unleashed his fearless Viking warlord Thorkell the Tall upon England's shores with his eye firmly on the weakened Saxon throne. Can the Vikings unite to conquer the English and claim the crown?

Lord Beornoth, the Viking-killer lives on, beset by the ravages of age and tortured by his past. At the King's bequest he is plunged into the brutal twilight of Saxon rule, where loyalty, courage, and sacrifice are tested on blood-soaked fields.

Armies clash and the throne of England becomes the ultimate prize. In the face of a Viking invasion, Beornoth faces his greatest battle in this unflinching fight through the last days of Saxon England.

Will Beornoth's courage be enough to defy the storm or will the death of a kingdom be written in the blood of its bravest defenders?

If you enjoyed the BBC's King & Conqueror and Bernard Cornwell's The Last Kingdom you'll love Beornoth's epic Saxon Warrior adventure.
