The last Englishman. The first freedom fighter. 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.
