The Boar Foretold

A thrilling saga set in Ancient Britain!

Cornwall, 514

With a Saxon invasion threatening to overwhelm Britain, High King Uthyr Pendragon searches for a solution. He is told of a prophecy claiming the crisis will be averted by the ‘Boar of Cornwall’, who will secure the future of the kingdom. Though Uthyr believes himself to be the Boar, the warrior-prophet Myrlin is certain that it in fact refers to Uthyr’s fifteen-year-old son, Arthur.

Arthur has a difficult relationship with his sickly and abusive father and is desperate to stand on his own feet. But as sole heir to the crown, he is not allowed on the battlefield. As the war intensifies and rumours spread of Uthyr’s ill health, Arthur must take control in Cornwall.

Will the young prince prove his worth? Is Myrlin’s prediction correct?

Can the Pendragons keep hold of their kingdom in the face of a vicious enemy…?

The Boar Foretold is the first book in THE KING ARTHUR ORIGINS SERIES: Post-Roman British historical fiction based on the earliest Arthurian legends. Now available from Sapere Books!
