As Scotland struggles to emerge in 824 A.D., the people of Dalriada are attempting to endure within a dangerous land where only the most courageous deeds assure survival. While Dalriadans battle for freedom, adversaries advance on every side. Lands to the south and east bring both Briton and Pict while the seas to the north bring the villainous Vikings. The call to the Dalriadans is clear—either fight or die. Alpin and his sons, Coric and Kenneth, are champions of the calling. But these clansmen need more than swords to save their people. They need the heart of a king. As the men struggle to survive the cunning Picts and savage Vikings, treachery imperils the land and prompts Kenneth to set out on a quest to unite his people. But can he carry out his task without forsaking his betrothed, Arabella? Now as the future hangs in the balance, Kenneth and the others must rise up to secure their precious freedom before their savage enemies rob them of life, love, and their destiny. In this rousing historical tale, a Dalriadan clansman and his sons answer a calling that asks them to sacrifice everything in order to ensure the future of their beloved land and family.

It is 831 AD, and Viking conquest has brought destruction and gloom to the village of Renton, creating tragedy and heartbreak to the clans of Dalriada. Still, Alpin and his sons, Coric and Kenneth, refuse to submit to the blade of their adversaries, bowing to neither Viking nor Pict. Now destiny’s hand is moving them to take hold of all that is sacred: peace, honor, and freedom. As their enemies work to stop them at all cost, Alpin and his sons press forward in courage. After freeing his siblings from the merciless Vikings, Kenneth finds himself amid a tumultuous test that transforms his heart, character, and soul. Meanwhile, Coric’s pursuit to rid the land of the evil savages carries him on a perilous path into the dark den of his enemy. Arabella and Ceana refuse to stand idle, knowing the lives of their beloved men teeter on life’s razor-sharp edge. As few bravely stand against many, Halfdan and his Vikings toil to complete their conquest of terror, while Oengus and his villainous Picts attempt to fulfill their treacherous plot for dominion. Who will win the battle for freedom? Dalriada: Edge of the Blade continues the treacherous, romantic, and twisting tale of Alpin, his clansmen, and their furious fight for survival as they embark on a predestined quest for a king.

Roman Britain, 366 AD: Minna, an eighteen-year-old Roman serving girl, leads a quiet life with her grandmother, a Celtic herbal healer. But when her beloved grandmother dies, Minna must make a difficult choice—marry a man she loathes, or venture out alone to track down her brother, a soldier in a Roman garrison stationed in the war-torn and wild Scottish borderlands. Desperate to find her brother, Minna falls in with Cian, an aloof but charming young acrobat. A terrible mistake thrusts the pair into slavery in the wilds of barbarian Scotland, where the Romans wage war on the violent, blue-tattooed Picts in Eastern Scotland. Cahir, King of the Dalriadans of western Scotland, is caught in the middle of a war that will seal the fate of the Scots. Year by year, Cahir has watched in shame as his people fall under the Roman yoke. Now Cian and Minna, unwilling prisoners at Cahir’s fort, must fight for their survival.

FROM THE HEART OF BELFAST COMES A TERRORIST THREAT THAT SPELLS DOOM FOR BRITAIN'S ONCE AND FUTURE KING . . . AND THE REST OF US AS WELL What SAS Captain Trevor Stirling doesn't know may kill him¾along with every man, woman, and child alive. Stirling thinks his mission is simple: follow a terrorist into the year AD 500 to stop a Northern Irish fanatic bent on murder. If the terrorist succeeds in killing Artorius, the Briton Lord of Battle and the most revered icon of British history, before his greatest military victory, the time-space continuum will fracture, destroying the British nation. And, coincidentally, the rest of the world. In a tale where no one is ever quite who or what they seem, hidden enemies and unexpected allies play out a drama of 21st-century terrorism against the backdrop of Arthurian Britain at its darkest hour. One man, alone in time, struggling to save an entire universe from extinction, must choose between duty to his mission and the growing conviction that he should forsake everything he holds dear to follow a higher duty¾to risk it all. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).
