Jarl Ulf is coming to Dal Riata with three hundred warriors and one mission. Destroy Erik Erikson and his growing legend. The captivating saga continues in Book Four, perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Peter Gibbons. Erik Erikson no longer kneels before Bishop Peader and his people have earned their freedom, but the peace he dreams of is further away than ever before. Because Clan Lachlann fights for and serves a Christian king an old ally now comes from Norway to destroy them and end their offense against the gods. Are the gods angry with Erik? Or do they challenge him to once more take up the reputation he left in Norway and rediscover his hunger for battle and glory? The future of Dal Riata is more shrouded by danger than when Erik first arrived. The nobles disapprove of the wife King Eidard took from the pagans, the vast armies of the Picts press against the eastern border and the divide between the crown and the church grows ever wider as whispers of treason spread across the land. Erik must do more than survive the next battle, he must become a warlord who draws men hungry for glory to his banner. Destiny demands that Erik Erikson, Earl of Clan Lachlann, become the true Defender of Dal Riata.
