Publisher's summary

The next thrilling, epic adventure in The Eagle of Mercia Chronicles - all NEW from MJ Porter

As a lone wolf inside a Wessex stronghold, Icel must ensure his own and Mercia’s triumph.

Londonia, AD830

Icel is becoming a warrior of Mercia, but King Ecgberht of Wessex still holds the Mercian settlement of Londonia and its valuable mint.

King Wiglaf of Mercia is determined that the last bulwark be reclaimed from his sworn enemy to complete his rehabilitation as Mercia’s rightful ruler.

In the heart of the shield wall, Icel suddenly finds himself on the wrong side of the battle and thrust into the retreating enemy stronghold where he must take on the pretence of a Wessex warrior to survive and exact a cunning plan to bring down the Wessex force cowering behind the ancient walls.

His allegiances are tested and the temptation to make new allies is overwhelming but Icel must succeed if he’s ever to see Tamworth again and bring about King Wiglaf’s victory, or will he be forced to join the enemy?

An action packed, thrilling historical adventure perfect for the fans of Bernard Cornwell and Matthew Harffy

Immersive and action packed

A visceral, action packed sequel that left me on the edge of my seat. A must-read for readers looking for a fully immersive narrative into ancient Britain's bloody past.

Porter did it again! I'm completely hooked on this series. Once again we follow Isil, who is now a soldier of the king of Mercia. During the chaos of battle to drive the Wessex king from Londinium, Isil is thrust behind enemy lines. He is forced to blend in with the Wessex soldiers or be discovered as a spy and die. Shenanigans ensue.

I'm well acquainted aith the narrator now and I'll be continuing this series on audiobook imminently. Porter is a master at battle scenes. I felt as if I was right there, forming the shield wall and bracing against the enemy, dodging stray sword thrusts and spear jabs, stumbling over the dead and dying. I'm in awe. How is this series not on Netflix yet?

I love Isil's character journey. Porter's writing engages me with his arc on a deep, emotional level. His actions and motivations are believable, his feelings in every mome t are visceral and engaging. Excellent.

Highly highly recommend for fans of The Last Kingdom, historical warfare fiction, ancient historical fiction, and medieval fiction. Can't wait to start book 3!
