About the Book

A Hidden Heir. A Ruthless Tyrant. A Kingdom on the Brink. This fall, prepare for a journey into the heart of a war-torn England, where loyalty is a forgotten luxury and survival is paid for in blood. Erik Gieske's masterful historical epic, The Wolf of Kennet, delivers a relentless, page-turning saga of vengeance, identity, and the forging of a leader in the crucible of conflict. The story begins in the quiet village of Ambray, where the young Alaric knows only the simple life of a farmer's son, raised by the noble Sir Ector. But when the banners of Renaud de Gris-the infamous 'Wolf of Kennet' and King Stephen's most brutal captain-appear on the horizon, Alaric's world is consumed by fire and slaughter. Forced to watch his foster-father's execution for defying the usurper king, Alaric flees into the wilderness with nothing but the clothes on his back and a vow of revenge seared into his soul. Hunted and alone, Alaric is found by Godric, a grizzled veteran warrior who shatters the last remnants of his old life. Alaric is not a farmer's son. He is the hidden heir to a powerful lordship, a bloodline de Gris thought he had extinguished years ago. The attack on Ambray was no random act of terror; it was the final, bloody stroke to secure a stolen legacy. Now, under Godric's harsh tutelage, Alaric must transform from a boy who has only known peace into a weapon sharp enough to challenge a tyrant. His path collides with a band of outlaws in Kennet Wood and leads to a fateful ambush on a supply convoy. But the prize they claim is more dangerous than any sword: the beautiful and defiant Isobel de Clare, daughter of a powerful lord... and the intended bride of Renaud de Gris himself. Isobel is no mere damsel. She is a cunning political player trapped in a web of alliances, a woman who may be the key to Alaric's vengeance or the instrument of his destruction. As enemies close in from all sides, Alaric, Godric, and their unlikely captive are forced into a desperate flight through a land ravaged by civil war. They must navigate a treacherous landscape of shifting loyalties and shadowy conspiracies, where every choice carries the weight of life and death. The Wolf of Kennet is a gripping, character-driven adventure that plunges the reader into the brutal reality of 12th-century England. With the visceral action of Bernard Cornwell and the political intrigue of Ken Follett, Erik Gieske crafts a timeless story of a young man's journey from hunted fugitive to a leader who must weigh the cost of personal vengeance against the duty to his people. Will Alaric reclaim his stolen birthright, or will the shadow of the Wolf consume him and everyone he holds dear? Find out in The Wolf of Kennet, a story of honor, betrayal, and the savage birth of a legend. About the Author: Erik Gieske is a new voice in historical fiction, with a passion for bringing the forgotten corners of history to vivid, breathing life. The Wolf of Kennet is his debut novel.
