Summary The Dark Ages: a time of chaos and bloodshed. The Roman legions have long deserted the Isles and the despotic Uther Pendragon, High King of Celtic Britain, is nearing death. As the tyrant falters, his kingdom is being torn apart by the squabbling of minor kings who jostle for his throne. Of unknown parentage, Artorex grows up in the household of Lord Ector, who fostered Artorex as a babe in arms. One day, three influential men arrive at Ector's villa and arrange for Artorex to be taught the martial skills of the warrior: blade and shield, horse and fire, pain and bravery. When they return, years later, Artorex is not only trained in the arts of battle, he is also a married man. The country is in desperate straits, for the great cities of the east are falling to the menace of the Saxon hordes. In spite of Uther, Artorex becomes a war chieftain, and wins many battles to earn him the trust of his Celtic warriors and prove that he alone can unite the tribes. But, if he is to fulfil his destiny and become the High King of the Britons, Artorex must find Uther's crown and sword.
