Heroes of Wessex Paperback Set

Among the Great description: The year is AD 877, and King Alfred has succeeded in driving the marauding Danes from his kingdom -- for the time being. Edwin and his sister Edith are just beginning to enjoy their liberty when, one terrible night, their lives change forever. Separated from one another and caught up in the turmoil of their times, Edwin and Edith must learn to discern between truth and falsehood, friend and foe, or be swept away on a tide of treachery.

Among the Outcast description: As thunder crashes overhead, condemnation throbbing in its ominous tones, Edwin flees from the kingdom he has betrayed. With every passing mile, his hopes of ever earning King Alfred’s forgiveness grow fainter. But while he wrestles with guilt and seeks for refuge among any who will shelter him, he has no idea of the great danger closing in on his family. Unless he can face the truth about himself and find the courage to return, all may be lost.

“Thank you for the book! This world needs more good fiction like this one.” ~ Erin Hylands, Author of With Eyes of Blue

"This is an excellent historical fiction book! With great character development, a strong brother-sister bond, delightful twists and turns, and a beautiful message of redemption, this book is definitely on my favorites list. I can tell the author did a lot of research and is very passionate about the time period and themes.

Amy Ullrich did an excellent job of writing a gripping adventure story with deep themes in a family-friendly way. I was glad to find another historical fiction book that isn’t focused on romance and is well-written with a strong Christian message naturally woven into the story.” ~ Savannah Jane McCrary, Author of The Fire and the Trial
