THE FORGOTTEN HERO. 1062. King Edward has no heirs and, across the sea in Normandy, William the Bastard is preparing to seize the throne. As the King's court is rife with squabbling and scheming, the nation's hopes of resisting the Normans lie with one man- the warrior Hereward. But Hereward has been outlawed and is on the run. Can he keep his freedom and his life in order to save the land he loves? Hereward is the first book in James Wilde's six book Hereward series. His story continues in Hereward- The Devil's Army.

About the Author :
James Wilde is a Man of Mercia. Raised in a world of books, the author studied economic history at university before travelling the world in search of adventure. He first encountered the great English warrior, Hereward, in the pages of a comic. It was while visiting the haunted fenlands of Eastern England, Hereward's ancestral home, that he became convinced that this legendary figure should be the subject of his first novel. The 'Hereward' series now runs to six novels, the most recent of which is Hereward - The Bloody Crown. James Wilde divides his time between London and the family home in Derbyshire.

Review :
