Book description
Lord Artos is on a historic quest - to search out the finest black
horses ever known to man. He has vowed to drive the invading Saxons
out of Britain, and he needs big, strong, powerful horses to carry his
army into battle.
Galwyn, a young Roman-Celt, leaps at the chance to accompany the
group, little guessing the adventure ahead of him - or the price he
will have to pay for his loyalty...
