Description
The Carnyx: Book 3 in High King, an exciting new historical fiction series bringing the Dark Age to life. Abandoned by the Romans, facing slaughter by raiding Picts and Saxons, Britain stands on the brink of catastrophe. A man of the West known as Vortigern becomes king of this fractured country. Centuries later, the legends will call him a villain, but to his people he is the High King. This is his story, seen through the eyes of Kerin Brightspear, the young warrior who becomes his devoted companion.Book 3: The Carnyx. Victory in the North is sealed. Vortigern has given his people everything they hoped for. The Picts, an enemy so formidable that the Romans never defeated them, have been overcome at last. The High King and his greatest ally, Kerin Brightspear, return home in triumph with the women they love. But their fragile peace is shattered on Midsummer's Eve, when Vortigern's treacherous rivals proclaim his son Rufus as king, firing a brutal civil war. Kerin, now known to all as 'The King's Right Arm', rallies old friends and new allies. Soon he and Vortigern will be fighting for their homeland in Wales. Rufus draws a huge force of fanatics and mercenaries to his stronghold in Glevum, boasting of weapons his enemies cannot withstand. But Vortigern's warriors have a secret weapon of their own; a thing of mystic power, concealed for centuries by the druids. They have the Carnyx. Kerin alone believes that the sound of the ancient war horn could still strike terror into an enemy. But if he is wrong, the kingdom and everything he loves could soon lie in ruins as Vortigern and his son face their final decisive battle.
