About this listen

The Wulfriths. It all began with a woman.

A battle. A crown. The conqueror. The conquered. Medieval England - forever changed by the Battle of Hastings. And the rise of the formidable Wulfriths.

An honorable Norman

Chevalier Cyr D’Argent convinced himself he joined Duke William’s invasion of England to reform its church and place its rightful king on the throne. But after a decisive Norman victory, the truth of his quest is revealed when his search for fallen kin leads to a Saxon grieving a boy slain by one of his own. Certain the defiant young woman will become the pick of the plunder, he forces her off the battlefield. Following a pilgrimage of penance, Cyr returns to England to seek his missing brother and claim the barony awarded by King William who stipulates he end the rebellion on his lands. He agrees, only to discover the woman he cannot forget is among those he must vanquish - and may even be their leader.

A rebellious Saxon

On a fateful autumn day in 1066, Aelfled of Wulfen’s mistake leads to the death of her lady’s son. Unforgivable - as is the silver-haired warrior who tempts her to put a blade in his back then does the unthinkable in protecting her from his fellow Normans. Now under the usurper’s rule, faith crippled by her people’s suffering, she finds her sanctuary threatened when she becomes a pawn of the rebel leader - and destroyed when betrayal delivers her into the hands of the man who haunts her dreams. As the fires of unrest scorch lives and lands, Aelfled struggles to shield her heart as well as her people. But perhaps love can unite Normans and Saxons. Perhaps she is meant to be here...with him...for such a time as this.

Thus begins the Age of Conquest series revealing the origins of the Wulfriths of the best-selling Age of Faith series. Look out for Fearless: Book 2 in 2019.

Love this author and narrator!!

I just love Tamara’s medieval books and this one is no exception!! The characters of Cyr and Aelfled were compelling, honorable, and very likable! The narrator was incredible!! Mary Sarah Agliotta did an amazing job with all of the voices and her accent put me in the middle of the action!

interesting characters

I struggled with the first few chapters, learning all of the complicated french names of family members and other characters. But as usual, with Tamara's books, the story was worth working through all of that! can't wait for the next book in this series.

You feel like you could walk around the characters & see everything that’s happening.

I love history, and although this is a work of fiction. It fits perfectly into the time. Every part of the story was so well thought out, down to every detail, you can see it clearly in your mind. Really great read!

Merciless - great book

Enjoyed Merciless. I enjoy following book in kindle with audible. I have the faith series which I read/listen to every year. I enjoy the voice of Mary Sarah Agliotta. It's like being transported back k in time. Tamara Leigh is one of my favorite authors. On to book 2.

surprisingly good

I almost gave up on the story in the beginning, it was really long and drawn out. And it was about 45 min before i really was drawn in to keep listening. I liked the characters.
Really liked that the author did NOT fill the story with gore, bad language or stupid people.
im ready for book 2.

Perfect

The narrator was perfect as always; perfect with differentiating characters, perfect with tones and emotions and perfect for this author and storyteller. I have read, re-read and enjoyed every book Tamara Leigh has written. I would not spoil any reader's journey by telling any of the story but know that the adventure is worth it.
