"After Hastings is a remarkable alternate history novel. A must read for anyone interested in the history of England and the Catholic Church." -MICHAEL A. BURSTEIN, Campbell/Astounding Award Winning Writer
On October 14, 1066, William of Normandy defeated King Harold of England at Hastings and changed the course of English history. But what if King Harold won the battle? After Hastings takes a look at a world in which the Norman Invasion of England is not successful, but the future of English history is still changed. The land Harold rules is not the same as the Anglo-Saxon kingdom before the attempted conquest.
With William vanquished, Harold sets about recreating his kingdom to ensure that it will no longer be at the mercy of foreign enemies. The Pope, overseeing the Church from Rome, however, may have different ideas about England's place in the world. Harold finds himself in a battle of wills with the Pope's emissary, Hildebrand.
After Hastings offers a medieval England filled with complex people, political intrigue, and religious upheavals, always under the increasing possibility for armed conflict.
On October 14, 1066. Harold held his throne ... but can he keep it???
