Acerca de esta escucha

 In the mid-5th century, the English clans, Angles, Jutes, Frīsians, Saxons and others, soon appeared on the devastated coasts of Roman-Britannia. They came from the ancient, mysterious forests of Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands. With them, they brought the English language, sagas of Germanic heroes, gods of fertility and gods of war. Based on true events, The Epic Hengist and Horsa Chronicles are epic adventures of extraordinary men and women, of invasion and conquest, of slavery, survival, war, love, the bond of brothers, of fathers and sons, of honour, sacrifice, kinship, betrayal and blood-feuds. After witnessing the massacre of his people by Gēat and Danish raiders, Hengist, aged seven, must lead his younger brother south to Angeln, the famous Kingdom of the Englisc in North Germania. Growing up in a world of chaos and violence, where boys are raised as men and men are forged into legends, the two brothers quickly learn to trust only a handful of men. Without their father's protection, Hengist and Horsa are forced to grow up fast, learning sword-play and the arts of war, for one day they would march north into Jutlande with the Englisc troops, through the sludge and the rain, with Offa the Brave leading the way in the fight against the Norse invaders. In an emotional, fast-paced, action-packed drama, Hengist gives us a detailed account of a warrior's life, where not all battles are fought against the enemy. You are about to re-live the true beginnings of a proud land known to the Gods as Ængla lande. Amazon UK Reviews Hengist & Horsa: The Thirst of the Gods ...Magnificent... again! ...A really good read. ...Honour, violence, gore, sex... brilliant! ...A Rollicking good read! ...This book is an entertaining read. Set on serious ground. Recommended!! ...a very inspiring and entertaining book. ...Terrific read ...Having read "Offa... Rise of the Englisc Warrior" and thoroughly enjoyed it, it was with some trepidation that I started to read "Hengist & Horsa", but that thought was soon dispelled. What an absolutely fantastic read... ...Hengist & Horsa had all the excitement, suspense, action, humour and tragedy of Offa, but Mr Swaffington just seemed to go up in a gear in his latest offering... ...He is raising the awareness of England's past and the colossal struggles that raised a nation. It should make every Englishman remember where we came from, why we should be proud of our past and remember the brotherhood and unity of our Englisc forefathers, because, sadly we are rapidly losing it. ...I would recommend "Offa... Rise of the Englisc Warrior" and "Hengist & Horsa" to everyone and anyone... and I hope Mr Swaffington gains the recognition he richly deserves. ...This is a huge undertaking by a young writer who clearly has ability and passion as well as a wealth of knowledge and intuitive understanding of the 'dark ages' of Northern Europe. I hope his book receives the recognition it deserves. ...An exciting read. Some awesome characters mixed with violence, honour, brotherhood, sex and friendship. A great book for anyone interested in the English people. ...the story was easy to follow and easy to visually imagine. The story is quick paced with plenty of battle scenes. The main character, Hengist, is well developed with an understanding of who he is and what drives him. ...The storyline is great! It covers a period of history, and characters in history that have never been covered well by anyone. I could not put this book down. ...Gives a great insight to the first Germanic warriors to come to England, their beliefs, culture and hardships before settling in a new land. ….this is a must!
