LMFraser said: A thoughtful, memorable adventure story about King Alfred. He realised that there had to be an alternative to the endless cycle of war under which the kingdoms which made up ninth-century Britain laboured. Much of the story is told through they eyes of Fleda, Alfred's daughter. Apart from being a gripping story, the author explores the nature of power, and the power of education during a critical period in Britain's evolution.
