The Druid

Set in Northern Britain during AD 430, this gripping tale unfolds in the wake of a devastating raid that leaves the village of Dun Buic in ruins and the king's daughter, Catia, captured. Tasked with rescuing her, the formidable warrior-druid Bellicus embarks on a treacherous journey, armed with ancient skills and loyal war-dogs, amid the chaos following the Roman legions' exit. As Catia faces peril among her captors, she discovers an unexpected ally, but the grim fate orchestrated by King Hengist looms large. This first volume from bestselling author Steven A. McKay delves into the rich folklore and turbulent landscape of post-Roman Britain, where themes of sacrifice, superstition, and survival intertwine.
