When the notorious pirate captain Redbone forms a new band of buccaneers, the Pirates Born of Iron and Blood, honor is a matter of life or death. Redbone’s grand idea seems reasonable—at least in a world where pirates also rule the high seas and many of the seaports. The Bloody Hag, a cold and ghastly-looking device, was created from Redbone’s imagination for this one purpose only: to bring together only the pirates worthy of the honor of wearing its mark of honor on their wrist. In Redbone’s world, you might end up dead if you aren’t a member of his bloody band of brothers.

First, he led his own uprising. Then he captured a forsaken king. Henry had no intention of taking the crown for himself; it was given to him by popular acclaim. Alas, it didn't take long to realize that that having the kingship was much less rewarding than striving for it. Only three months after his coronation, Henry IV had to face a rebellion led by Richard's disgruntled favorites. Repressive measures led to more discontent.

In an effort to untangle Banquo's murder and honor his lineage, Walter moved through events that shaped the course of England and Scotland. He served Harold Godwineson, finding himself in the middle of Harold's Welsh campaign.

Harold Godwineson, the Last Anglo-Saxon King, owed everything to his father. Who was this Godwine, first Earl of Wessex and known as the Kingmaker? Was he an unscrupulous schemer, using King and Witan to gain power? Or was he the greatest of all Saxon Earls, protector of the English against the hated Normans? The answer depends on who you ask.
