* AS A NATION BURNS, A FAMILY FIGHTS TO SURVIVE...

Rebel Cast out and rejected by his family, Tom Rivers returns to his regiment. But his commander believes the young hothead's recklessness and contempt for authority has no place in his troop. But to a spymaster like Captain Crafte, Tom's dark and fearless nature is in itself a weapon to be turned upon the hated Cavaliers. He has plans for the young rebel...

Renegade Raw with grief at the death of his father, Edmund Rivers rejects the peace talks between Parliament and the King. He chooses instead to lead a hardened band of marauders across the moors, falling on unsuspecting rebel columns like wolves. But Prince Rupert - recognising in Mun a fellow child of war - has other plans for him. The only peace the enemy will get from Mun Rivers is that of the grave...

Huntress Her heart broken following the deaths of her beloved Emmanuel and her father, Bess Rivers takes the hardest decision of her life- to leave her new-born son and depart Sheer House in search of the one person who might help her re-unite her broken family. She will do whatever it takes but can she douse the flames of her brothers' fury and see them reconciled?"

Family history and his storytelling hero, Bernard Cornwell, inspired Giles Kristian to write his first novels, the acclaimed Raven Viking series. Long fascinated by the English Civil War - from absorbing the vibrant illustrations in school text books to appreciating the cold efficiency of Cromwell's New Model Army, admiring the flair of the Cavaliers and revelling in the romance of the doomed Royalist cause - Giles turned to this complex and brutal conflict for his new historical series, the Bleeding Land trilogy. Giles lives in Leicestershire. To find out more, visit www.gileskristian.com
