1067. The Battle of Hastings has been lost and William the Conqueror has begun to squeeze the life out of England, but there is one who still stands against the foreign invasion...
1067: Following the devastating destruction of the Battle of Hastings, William the Bastard and his men have descended on England. But there is one who stands in the way of the invader’s savagery. He is called Hereward. He is a warrior and master tactician―and as adept at battle as the imposter who sits upon the throne. And he is England’s last hope.
In a Fenlands fortress of water and wild wood, Hereward’s resistance is simmering. His army of outcasts grows by the day―a devil’s army that emerges out of the mists and the night, leaving death in its wake. But William is not so easily cowed.Here then is the tale of the bloodiest rebellion England has ever known.
