Badon Hill (The Dominic Chronicles) (Volume 3)

Rome's protection had been withdrawn. Britain’s underbelly was exposed. The Saxons had conquered South East Britannia, but the lands further west had always eluded them. Repeatedly,they had tried to break Arthur’s dominance of the West Country, but to no avail. Arthur and his stronghold of Brythonfort were a breakwater upon which the Saxon threat always faltered. But now things were different; now they had forged an alliance with a rogue British tribe and the ruthless Guertepir; now they could attack in great numbers and draw Arthur from his bastion. Their immediate goal was the restored spa town of Aquae Sulis. Above the town, the high ground of Badon Hill awaited. Here, the battle would make the ground shake. Here, the conflict would forge the destiny of Britannia once and for all.
