Green Saxon Darkness

Review "Ms. Cottrel's mesmerizing tale has rich, multi-layered details and strong, fascinating characters. If some find the violence graphic, it is disturbing perhaps because such inhumane things still happen today. Ms. Cottrel is a talent to watch." -- Romantic Times, October 1999 Product Description The time is 1069. The so-called Norman Conquest has been raging for three years, but the Saxons refuse to surrender. In Green Saxon Darkness, Cottrel tells the tale of the Saxon rebellion, led by Hereward the Wake, the last of the legendary Saxon knights. Intrigue, battles and romance abound as Hereward's cousin Alyce, a grand-daughter of Canute and one of the fiercest of the English rebels, finds herself caught in a dark secret that pitches her head-long into the middle of a love triangle, with the future of her beloved country at stake. About the Author Pamela Cottrel writes for The New Carlisle Sun in Ohio, where she lives with her husband and daughters. Green Saxon Darkness is the first novel in a planned trilogy about the Norman Conquest and the legend of Hereward the Wake.
