Anglo-Saxon Boy drops Magnus, son of Harold Godwinson, into the family feud that culminates at Hastings in 1066, showing the human cost of power struggles. Roman Boy traces Lucius, banished to Londinium, who joins the Roman legion under a false name, faces assassins and rebels, and must confront his hidden past before he can claim his future.
