Artemis is a splendid heroine who highlights the many roles women played in these societies.'</em></p><p><strong>Edoardo Albert (author and historian)</strong></p><p><br></p><p><em>'This book was a pleasure from page one and I had to restrain myself from reading too fast to take in her lovely writing. So descriptive you feel immersed in 7th century England. I love this time period and the author does a super job bringing it to life. Once known as the Dark Ages Hill shows us what a vibrant and complex world it truly was. The clash of original Britians Saxons Picts the remains of the Roman Empire pagans and Christians makes for a compelling tale.'</em></p><p> </p><p><strong>Jean M Roberts (author) </strong></p>
