Next week DMR Books will make our first foray into historical adventure fiction with the first book publication of Wulfhere by A.B. Higginson! Wulfhere, Higginson’s only novel, was originally serialized in Adventure magazine in 1920.

In the Dark Ages of England, kingdoms were ready to be carved out by any with the ambition and might to do so. The mightiest ruler of all was Penda, Lord of Mercia, a man as strong as he was ruthless. He had no equal in martial prowess, except for his son Wulfhere…

Wulfhere inherited his father’s physical stature, but not his penchant for dishonor and cruelty. His saga is one of conquest and justice; of brotherhood and treachery; of love and hate. Who will rule England when the dust settles?
