Fatal Rivalry: Part Three of The Last Great Saxon Earls
Description
<p>In 1066, the rivalry between two brothers brought England to its knees. When Duke William of Normandy landed at Pevensey on September 28, 1066, no one was there to resist him. King Harold Godwineson was in the north, fighting his brother Tostig and a fierce Viking invasion. How could this have happened? Why would Tostig turn traitor to wreak revenge on his brother?<br />The Sons of Godwine were not always enemies. It took a massive Northumbrian uprising to tear them apart, making Tostig an exile and Harold his sworn enemy. And when 1066 came to an end, all the Godwinesons were dead except one: Wulfnoth, hostage in Normandy. For two generations, Godwine and his sons were a mighty force, but their power faded away as the Anglo-Saxon era came to a close.</p>
Story Behind The Book
Shadowchaser was my first novel, originally published in paperback, and now available only as an Amazon Kindle exclusive. The long promised - oft put off - sequel is coming soon...honest.
Reviews
<div>Electa Graham, Author</div><br /><div>Mr. Hulse has written a beautifully crafted tale of good vs evil. I have read many books with this theme, hell vs heaven literal and figurative. What makes Shadowchaser such an enjoyable read is the poetic way the author describes each character and scene. The characters are vivid and three dimensional. Martin is flawed, but sympathetic. The antagonists are perhaps the most interesting and intense.</div><div>Clive Barker is one of my favourite horror novelists and Mr. Hulse has a lot in common with him. His worlds are so real to the reader that you don't question the fantastical or the mythical. Shadowchaser has the same feel. I enjoyed it immensely and intend to read his other book The Blue Hour. Give this author a read and you won't be disappointed. </div>
