I am a prince of Wales and a baron of the March...”

1216 AD. The Welsh March is a land of fire and sword. Here, on this hellish war-torn frontier, Welsh princes and Marcher lords fight for power. The strong prosper, the weak perish.

Gruffudd is the young heir to Powys, a proud and ancient Welsh house. When his father is defeated by the lord of Gwynedd, Llywelyn the Great, Gruffudd and his family are driven from their home. They take refuge in England, where Gruffudd swears vengeance on Llywelyn and all his kin.

When his father dies, Gruffudd is the only hope of his dynasty. To succeed, he must be hard as steel, cold and ruthless. In the harsh and bloody world of the March, there can only be one victor.

MARCHLANDS (THE SWORD OF WALES BOOK 1) is a short novella by David Pilling, author of The Bloody Hand saga, Longsword, Leader of Battles, The Champion, Edward I and Wales, and many other fiction and nonfiction works.
