Late Spring, 455 AD.
South-west Britannia
After a brutal winter struggle, outcast imperial officer, Ambrosius Aurelianus, has led his weary followers to the south-west in search of his mother's kinfolk. But the High King Vortigern, thirsting for revenge, is already forging a dangerous alliance against him.
Ambrosius takes refuge in a ruined Roman fort near the decaying town of Vindocladia, but if Vortigern attacks before the fort is repaired, Ambrosius fears the outcome. He must find allies fast.
BRITAIN AFTER ROME IS A LAND OF SQUABBLING RIVAL TRIBES
At first, the Roman encounters more enemies than friends, but he finds an ally in the widowed queen of the Durotriges, Lurotriga. He is soon beguiled by the British noblewoman, though still sworn to his Saxon lady, Inga.
Between Inga and her new rival there can be no compromise, and their enmity threatens to cause a rift between the Britons and Saxons of Ambrosius' company. With his forces stretched perilously thin, the lives of both Inga and Lurotriga are put at risk.

"In Land of Fire, Birks creates a world of violence and intrigue that will leave you breathless. Set in the period after the Romans have left Britain for good, it captures the desperate struggles between rival warlords seeking to install themselves as overlord, set against the ever-growing threat of Saxon incursion from the east. For page after page, the relentless action sweeps you through the landscape from brutal skirmish to gory battle. Intense!" (Paul Bernardi, author of The Huscarl Chronicles)
"Packed with action and a cast of well-drawn characters." (Peter Sandham, author of Porphyry & Ash)
"Fast-paced and action-packed." (Richard Foreman, author of Spies of Rome)
