Editorial Reviews

“Action packed with battles, legends, and myths, this is another spectacular story by Wendy Leighton-Porter. The reader won't be able to put this book down from page one.” READERS’ FAVORITE BOOK REVIEWS

“Another excellent episode in Wendy Leighton-Porter's superb series that combines modern youngsters with great historical events. It's full of historical detail combined with serendipitous folklore… I loved the way the author folded in legends such as Black Shuck to add to the kids’ danger. Looking forward, as always, to the next in the series...." JEMIMA PETT, author of Princelings of the East series

“History comes alive under the author’s skilled pen and any young reader will be drawn right into the magicality of history populated by characters that are not dry as dust mentions or mere names in the pages of a boring book, but are people with dreams and ambitions.” FIONA INGRAM, author of The Chronicles of the Stone series

“Tension and humour add to the enjoyment of reading this version of events leading up to the one Battle that every schoolchild in England knows the date of.” OLIVER EADE, author
