The old world is burning.

A hero will rise from its ash.

Thirty years passed since Britannia voted to throw off the Roman yoke. Now, the old world crumbles. Pirates roam the seas, bandits threaten the highways, and barbarian refugees from the east arrive on Britannia's shores, uninvited. The rich profit from the chaos, while the poor suffer. A new Dark Age is approaching - but all is not lost.

Ash is a Seaborn, a Saxon child found on the beach with nothing but a precious stone at his neck and a memory of a distant war from which his people have fled. Raised on the estate of a Briton nobleman, trained in warfare and ancient knowledge, he soon becomes embroiled in the machinations and intrigues at the court of Wortigern, the Dux of Londinium, a struggle that is about to determine the future of all Britannia.

A child of Saxon blood, an heir to Roman family, his is a destiny like no other: To join the two races and forge a new world from the ruins of the old.

Britain after the departure of the Romans has recently become a period of history that fascinates me. However, most that is written of this period, fiction or history, comes from the native britons perspective. Saxon Spears opens another world view on this period and the author writes knowledgeably and convincingly. I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook and I am leaping into the next installment.
