Before the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms rose, two brothers came across the sea. AD862 - As Viking raids intensify, and fires burn across the horizon, and the quiet life of Cantwaraburg monastery stands on the edge of ruin, Brother Aldhelm puts quill to vellum. With time running out, he sets down the dark, forgotten origin of Britain, a tale whispered across centuries, preserved before the flames take it all. In the 5th century, a Britain abandoned by Rome stands divided and desperate. Invited as mercenaries to defend a king who can not protect his own land, the warrior brothers Hengist and Horsa arrive upon the shores of Kent.
What begins as a promise of protection, quickly spirals into a brutal sage of oath breaking, blood feuds, and political betrayal.
They came to fight for a foreign throne, but stayed to forge an empire. The Legend of Hengist and Horsa uncovers the perilous beginnings of England, through the eyes of a monk, desperate to save the truth from history's ash heap.
