The Great Army of the Danes invades Wessex, and, after two sieges, Alfred forces King Guthrum to agree to withdraw. When the leader of the Great Army breaks his word and invades Wessex in early winter, he nearly succeeds in capturing Alfred and destroying the last independent Saxon kingdom in Britain. King Alfred hides in the forest, until he finds a base deep in the fastness of a marsh. From there he starts to strike back. He deals with the traitors within, and sends the word for his fyrd to gather when winter ends. Spring finds his men rallying to his banner, and King Alfred defeats the Danes. Prince Ambrose and Polonius will help the king. Britain is saved. Alfred the Great; King's Revenge, is now available. Here are some comments on it, posted by readers like you. "I have enjoyed the whole Ambrose series and I think that this is the best one to date. I sure hope another one is being written." "5 out of 5 stars. Awesome" "A good continuation of the story of Ambrose Prince of Wessex and his friends." "Good book." "Bruce Corbett's books have really got better and better as I work my way through the story of Ambrose."
