Book
Druid’s Gold
Two native nobles choose opposing sides as Rome struggles to secure its hold on Britannia. One serves within the Roman military system, while the other supports resistance and believes the province can still be driven beyond imperial control. Their rivalry gives the wider conflict a personal edge.
Marcus’s auxiliary cavalry is forced to undertake responsibilities normally expected of a legion, while the Brigantian leader Morwenna pursues both political power and revenge for her mother’s death. The novel follows mobile cavalry through a frontier where Roman authority remains incomplete, showing how local dynastic rivalries, memories of conquest and military necessity can combine into renewed rebellion.
