Tento autor sa vo svojich dielach často zaoberá dramatickými a transformačnými obdobiami histórie, najmä pádom Rímskej Británie a prechodom do temného stredoveku. Jeho písanie vťahuje čitateľov do osudov vojakov a ich potomkov, ktorí sú svedkami reťazca udalostí vedúcich k zásadným spoločenským zmenám. Ďalšia jeho tvorba skúma menej známe, keltské korene legendárnych postáv a ich mytologický odkaz. Vyznačuje sa hlbokým záujmom o historické premeny a ich dopad na ľudské životy.
The sudden disappearance of Jack Jones, a beloved figure in British radio and a symbol of national resilience, sends the authorities into a frenzy. As the nation grapples with the potential fallout of his absence, there's a palpable tension beneath the surface as everyone attempts to maintain a sense of normalcy. The urgency to locate him intensifies, reflecting the deep connection he holds with the public and the fear of unrest that his absence may provoke.
He sits on his jeweled throne on the Horn of Africa, observing his vast empire reflected in a palace mirror. Carrying three crosses into battle, each guarded by one hundred thousand men, he was present with St. Thomas in the third century, establishing a Christian church in India. Eight centuries later, he emerged from the East to aid the crusaders in Jerusalem and was still sought by Portuguese explorers in the fifteenth century. Known by various names—Ong Khan, Genghis Khan, Lebna Dengel—he was primarily a Christian king ruling over a realm filled with magical wonders: men with faces in their chests, others with enormous, backward-facing feet, and rivers made of sand. His lands bordered the earthly Paradise, once the Garden of Eden. He corresponded with popes and princes, offering salvation and hope to many. However, as exploration expanded and science began to replace superstition, the figure of Prester John seemed to recede, existing only in distant realms beyond the Mountains of the Moon or near the mouth of Hell. Was he real? Did he ever exist? This narrative invites you on a journey to explore worlds that could have been, but never were, daring you to enter the enigmatic realm of Prester John.
THE END OF ROMAN BRITAIN CONTINUES. 'We are the watchmen; the keepers of the flame.' Britannia in the late fourth century is a wild, dark place and the Pax Romana that has held for three hundred years is crumbling. Justinus Coelius is commander of the Wall and he is facing invasion from Saxons and treachery from within. Leocadius Honorius is consul of Londinium, but his fragile grasp on his lifestyle is broken when he plays dice with the wrong people. Vitalis Celatius just wants a quiet, peaceful life but his sister Conchessa is desperate to find her husband who has fallen foul of the Emperor. And the Emperor is about to face a challenge from Magnus Maximus, the general who takes Britannia's legions to overthrow him. Celtic legend, Egyptian mysticism and Gaelic battle-fury are all interwoven in this dark tale. The surviving Heroes of the Wall are once again thrown into the melting pot of history. How many of them will still be standing at the end? "An impressive followup volume to The Wall. True to the first book, Roman Britain is expertly portrayed with historical accuracy and detailed descriptions and characterization. I will await volume 3 eagerly." Polly Krize - Reviewer
