THE BANNED

England, 845 AD: Heregar, the son of Herewulf, lives the privileged life of a Thane on his lands in Somerset. One day, however, he is arrested and accused of conspiring to murder the king. The accusations are a lie, and Heregar expects to be exonerated by his neighbors. But when he learns that the chief accuser is his neighbor Thane Matelgar, whose daughter Alswythe he loves, all hope of acquittal is lost. In court he is declared an outlaw and exiled. His only chance of survival is to escape. When he encounters Danish Vikings, he faces a difficult choice between revenge and loyalty to his people, especially to the traitor Matelgar, who turned against him. What will be his choice?

This is the fifth book in the eight-volume series "IN DARK AGES" by Charles W. Whistler.


IN DARK AGES

The stories of the "IN DARK AGES" series by Charles Watts Whistler take place in medieval England and span a period of over 400 years. The series consists of a total of eight volumes.

Haveloc
The Prince of Cornwall
War of the Saxon Kings
Wulfric the Weapon Thane
The Banned
Viking of the King
Against Vikings
800 Vikings

The individual volumes are complete, self-contained books that can be read independently of the other volumes of the series. The overall connection of the series results from the chronological order and embedding of the events in the historical context.

Whistler places great emphasis in his books on a realistic portrayal of life in the early and high Middle Ages. The archaic style of language he uses creates an atmosphere of harshness and gloom.
