Description
Thousands of years after the wall was built to keep out the North Sea, the Europe of the Bronze Age is very different from the land our ancestors knew.The whole of Northern Europe, including Doggerland, the vast plain that links Britain to the mainland, is a sparsely populated near-wilderness of marshes and woodland. A rich land.
So rich that in the drought-plagued lands around the Mediterranean jealous eyes have been drawn to its wealth. A woman seeking a break from the past and a man seeking to build an Empire in the North will clash.
War is brewing and it is war that will decide the future of our world. A war for control of a land and a new element, one that could change everything: iron.
Can a wall that has kept out a sea for centuries, that stretches from England to Denmark, a wall of stone and earth fifty metres high, keep the future at bay?
