The greatest battle lies within... England is at war. Edmund has fought the Normans all his life. First at Hastings, then in uprisings against William the Conqueror. But as the rebellions fail, Edmund leaves England and eventually travels to Constantinople, where he joins the Byzantine Emperor's elite Varangian Guard. Yet Edmund is at war with himself too, torn between his new life and his dreams of revenge against the Normans - of leading an army of battle-hardened Englishmen back home to restore an English King. Before fighting the Normans in his homeland however Edmund must defeat his enemy on the blood-soaked lands of Greece. Edmund is a soldier. And a soldier must fight. But not all will go according to plan. War - and revenge - always exacts a price. For fans of Ben Kane, Michael Jecks and Conn Iggulden. Praise for Gabriel Stein: 'Recommended reading for fans of the genre.' Saul David. 'Meticulously researched. Stein fills a gap in history and historical fiction.' Richard
