THE WOLF OF KINGS
THE CHAMPION OF A DEAD KING HAS NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE... AND NOTHING MORE TO FEAR
OATH BOUND
RICHARD CULLEN
England, 1066. Styrkar the Dane stumbles wounded and delirious from the corpse-strewn battlefield of Senlac Hill. He has watched his king butchered at the hands of foreign knights, seen his countrymen defeated in battle, and he will not stop until there is a reckoning.
Styrkar embarks on a bloody quest to avenge his dead master, becoming an outlaw in the wilds and earning a fearsome reputation. When a Breton knight, Ronan of Dol-Combourg, seeks to track down this fugitive and make his own name, he can little envisage the task he has set himself. For Styrkar, the Red Wolf, last surviving housecarl to King Harold Godwinson, will carve the story of his vengeance in Frankish flesh… or die in the attempt.
SHIELD BREAKER
RICHARD CULLEN
England, 1068: a land gripped in the iron fist of Frankish invaders. But the Conqueror does not sit easily on his fledgling throne. Rebellion is rife, and the flames of uprising have been ignited in every corner of the kingdom.
Thrown back into this crucible is Styrkar the Dane, former housecarl of the slain King Harold. Forced to travel to Ireland by his deadliest enemy, he must risk the fates of his brothers-in-arms in order to protect the one thing he loves.
So begins a journey that will take Styrkar to the royal court of Dublin, and the frigid climes of the north of England, for loyalty, love and vengeance. He will be tested, beaten and broken, but can any man keep the Red Wolf chained for long?
WINTER WARRIOR
RICHARD CULLEN
England, 1069. King William has finally stamped his authority on this conquered kingdom. His lands are held in the iron grasp of Frankish lords, their castles dominating the skyline. But a rebellious few still lurk on the fringes, and they will not fade quietly into the wilderness.
In the east, an outlaw rebel has risen, gathering support from the common folk, and building an island fortress that stands as a bastion of hope against Frankish oppression. Edgar the Aetheling remains defiant in his quest for the throne, and alongside renowned Danish warrior Styrkar, the Red Wolf, sails to Denmark to forge an uneasy alliance.
As winter shrouds the land in a cloak of frost, Styrkar, and the rebels at his side, will discover just how brutal the Conqueror can be. For King William is determined to stamp out all resistance, marshalling acts of utter cruelty that will leave a blight on England for decades. Deeds that even the Red Wolf might not survive...
