About this ebook
The Saxon Shore tells the story of Valdor, a young Batavian. After his friend kills a centurion, they escape from Roman justice in a fishing boat.
It's the third century, when leadership conflicts proliferate. General Carausius has proclaimed himself Emperor of both Britannia and Northern Gaul. Valdor befriends Carausius and, installed as Count of the Saxon Shore, must complete the coastal defences against Saxon and Frankish raiders.
Faced with barbarian tribes on its frontiers, the Roman army has to enlist former enemies, no matter the cost. Will Britannia ever regain peaceful prosperity, and what will happen to the usurper now that Diocletian is persecuting Christians?
THE SAXON SHORE is a riveting historical adventure set in late 3rd century Britannia and Europe.
