Scars From The Past: The Wars of the Roses, cartea 5

Autor Derek Birks
en Limba Engleză Paperback – dec 2016
An unwelcome legacy. An impossible love. A relentless enemy. By 1481, England has been free from civil war for ten years. The Elder family have discovered a fragile peace in the lands they fought to win back, yet scars from the past remain with them all. Given time, they might heal, but when did the Elders ever have enough time? And close to home in Ludlow, trouble is stirring. Born out of the bloody devastation of the Wars of the Roses, young John Elder is now the heir to his father's legacy, but he finds it a poisonous one. Driven from the woman he loves by a duty he fears, John abandons his legacy and flees the country to become a mercenary in Flanders. In his absence, stalked by a ruthless outlaw, the Elder family must face a deadly storm of blood and chaos. When the young heir to the throne, Edward, Prince of Wales, is caught up in their bitter struggle, the future appears bleak. Only if the Elders can put the scars from the past behind them, is there any hope of survival.

Notă biografică

Derek lives in Dorset but was born in Hampshire and spent his teenage years in Auckland, New Zealand, where he still has strong family ties. After teaching for many years in a Berkshire secondary school, he decided to concentrate on his writing. Interested in a wide range of historical themes, Derek began his writing career with the late medieval period. He writes character-driven, action-packed fiction which is rooted in accurate history. His debut historical novel, Feud, is the first of a series of eight books and one novella entitled The Wars of the Roses which follows the fortunes of the fictional Elder family. Derek has also written the Amazon bestselling trilogy, The Last of The Romans, which focuses on the real fifth century Romano-British character of Ambrosius Aurelianus. His latest book is Rebel Sword which is set during the Anarchy in twelfth century England.Also out now is a modern thriller, Eyes Like Blades, under the pen name Tom Hadley, which marks a significant change of genre for Derek. Pen and Sword have recently published his first non-fiction book: A Guide to the Wars of the Roses.Derek has also written and produced over 40 podcasts on the Wars of the Roses. With historian, Sharon Bennett Connolly, he now co-hosts the podcast series, A Slice of Medieval, which is a fusion of history and historical fiction featuring both popular historical novelists and medieval historians.
