The Saxon Sword by Laura Gwendolyn Hill

Congratulations to author Laura Hill on her debut novel, THE SAXON SWORD! This will be part of a series and I cannot wait to read it! I love the Saxon period and part of my next book will also be set in Saxon England! Be sure to check out Laura’s new book!

Here is the blurb:

 The
year is 603 AD. Seven Saxon kingdoms dominate the east of Britain while the
beleaguered British plot to reclaim their land.

On a
remote Scottish island, a baby girl, Artemis, is born. As a child, she is
determined to unravel the mystery of her father’s identity. As a young woman
with the heart of a warrior, she leaves home to find her father and faces many
dangers on the road.

Fate
leads Artemis into the kingdom of Northumbria where Edwin reigns as High King
of Britain. In the turbulent court of King Edwin, Artemis is oath-bound to
protect a princess, but can she prove her worth in a man’s world? Is she worthy
of wielding the Saxon Sword?

‘Gorgeous writing and a captivating story.’

‘A glorious journey through early-medieval
Britain.’
