The Genesis of Arthwys:  The Real King Arthur in Dark Age Britain

Fiction  ISBN 978-1-0686109-2-9   

 

AD 412. Britannia is breaking apart.

​

The Roman legions are gone, leaving rival warlords to fight for control as Saxon forces push relentlessly inland.

​

In the north, mighty war leader Coel Hen has defended the frontiers for decades. But now he is dying, and with him, the fragile unity of his kingdom begins to collapse. If the kingdom falls, it will not be to the Saxons alone, but to civil war.

 

Talhaearn, Coel’s adopted son, is forced into a role he was never meant to inherit. To survive, he must unite Coel’s divided family, command a fragile militia, and protect the young prince Arthwys, the boy who may become Britain’s greatest war leader. But loyalties are shifting, and betrayal is close.

 

Set in the brutal realities of post-Roman Britain, Genesis of Arthwys reimagines the origins of the figure later remembered as King Arthur, not as myth, but as a commander forged in war.

 

Here, survival demands more than strength. And not all loyalties will hold.
