In a crumbling post-Roman Britain, Vitalinus, later Vortigern, rises to power through political manoeuvring and mercenary allies. He faces challenges from religious figures like St Germanus and ambitious nobles like Aurelius Ambrosius, culminating in a battle for control.
During the transition from Roman order to a fragmented, warlord-ruled society the Jutes, led by Hengist, arrive, seeking land and influence, leading to further conflict and alliances, ultimately shaping the destiny of Britain and the rise of Arthur. The last gleam of light in the twilight of Roman civilisation.
The narrative reflects the disintegration of Roman authority and the resulting chaos and power vacuums. It explores the corrupting influence of power and the lengths to which individuals will go to to achieve it.
This novel will appeal to listeners of historical fiction, particularly those interested in the post-Roman period and Arthurian legends; and listeners who enjoy complex political narratives, military strategy and character-driven stories.
