From the dark misty shores west of the Shannon, Brian Boru battles his way to become High King, ending the six-hundred-year reign of the Northern O’Neill’s. But status, once gained, must be retained; the Norse and Danes, new migrants to Irish shores, fight to stem Brian’s increasing power, while fierce Irish tribes also seek control.
As Brian spends his days in a whirlwind of constant conflict, his wife, Gormfhlaith, battles to save her family – at any cost …
