Trained from a young age to follow his father into the ranks of King Harold's loyal huscarls, he is thrust into maelstrom of that year's events; events that would prove cataclysmic for both him and his country. When a Viking army invades the country to the north, Thurkill finds himself in the front rank of the Saxon shield wall fighting for his life in a truly terrifying baptism of fire. Things then go from bad to worse when, just days later, news reaches the King that Duke William of Normandy has landed on the south coast. It is only after this second battle is done, however, that Thurkill's real struggle begins: the fight to save his family from the evil clutches of Count Richard FitzGilbert.
