The Wolves of Dumnonia

A kingdom seized. Two surviving princes, separated by fate and distance. One seeks revenge; the other, belonging. 

“The closest thing you’ll get to a time machine. Peter Fox’s rousing tale thrusts you into a dark age world that envelops every sense so powerfully you feel like you’re pounding through the mud beside the characters. A remarkable debut. Recommended.” (James Wilde, author of the best-selling Hereward series)

Rescued as an infant from the wreckage of his boat, Caelin ap Cadwyr has come to be raised as a Norseman, far from his homeland, his family, and his destiny. Given a new name - Rathulf Thorvaldarsson - the orphaned Briton is unaware that his chosen path as a Viking warrior is soon to be thrown wildly off course. 

Although well aware of his British ancestry, one secret has remained hidden from Rathulf throughout his life. The key to that secret is an oaken trunk, plucked with the baby from the foundering skiff all those years ago; but when it comes time to reveal the truth, Rathulf’s foster-father, fearing the loss of his son, defies the will of the Gods. He breaks the blood pact sealed after the rescue of the babe, unintentionally setting off a chain of events that will leave Rathulf fighting not just for his identity, but for life itself. 

The Shadow of Fenrir is the first volume in The Wolves of Dumnonia series.
