El druida
McKay, Steven A.
Northern Britain, 430 AD. The last Roman troops have left Britain to their fate and Saxons, Jutes and Angles land on its shores ready to divide the island. An unexpected attack leaves the village of Dun Buic a pile of rubble and many villagers dead. While the survivors try to understand what happened, the king of Alt Clota entrusts Bellicus, a young Druid warrior, with the mission of hunting down the assailants, since they have taken his daughter, Princess Catia. Bellicus, with years of training in the ancient teachings and unparalleled skill with the long sword, will undertake, in the company of his two war dogs, a dangerous journey. This will take you through that old province of the Empire that struggles to survive in a world that, without the legions, has become strange. A world in which human sacrifice, war and superstition coexist with love, laughter and song and in which Christianity seems to be winning the battle for souls. Meanwhile, Catia finds an unexpected ally of hers among her violent captors, but even he cannot seem to avoid the terrible fate that King Hengist has in store for her ...
