The Impossible Journey

About the Book

From the dying lips of an old Druid, a prophecy was given to Masada. It was a look into the future of his yet unborn child. “One day your son will become a great leader even someday a king”. The child was a son and now nineteen years later he was a man. It was a time of change; the Romans had long gone and the vacuum left behind created chaos. The year was 450AD, the year Britannia became a magnet for those who wished to abandon a war-ravaged Europe. Saxons took over the south, Angles settled in the north east, the Celtic tribes ruled the western hills and the Britons became strangers in their own land. Against this turbulent background, one man took upon himself an impossible journey. One that began with a marriage to a beautiful princess and ended with the saving of a nation.
