A Prince of Cornwall / A Story of Glastonbury and the West in the Days of Ina of Wessex
About This Book
The narrative follows a young Cornish noble and his companion as they are caught up in frontier warfare between the West Welsh and the growing power of Wessex, leading to flight, capture, and varied adventures across the western hills and coasts. Their journey passes through treacherous cliffs, haunted woods and moors, risky sea landings, and encounters with local rulers, a mysterious menhir and a wizard, and a princess who becomes a companion. Episodes of battle, ransom and shifting loyalties test bonds of faith and kinship, and the tale closes on reconciliations, a found home, and the last peril faced by the wandering prince.
