Harffy Matthew: A Time for Swords

Dominion of Dust

The new A Time for Swords historical adventure sees Hunlaf and his crew take on the mighty intrigues of Byzantium.

Hunlaf battles peril and intrigue on a dangerous voyage to Muslim Spain.

AD 796. Sailing in search of an object of great power, Hunlaf and his comrades are far from home when they are caught up in a violent skirmish against pirates.

After the bloody onslaught, an encounter with ships from Islamic Spain soon sees them escorted under guard to the city of Qadis, one of the jewels of the Emirate of Al-Andalus and the true destination of their voyage.

Hunlaf believes the Emir's lands hold the key to his search, but there are dangerous games at play. To achieve his goal, Hunlaf and his allies must walk a difficult path where friends and enemies alike are not always what they seem - and where a weapon deadlier than any yet seen could change the future of all the kingdoms in Europe.

The third thrilling historical adventure in the A Time for Swords series by Matthew Harffy, perfect for fans of Ben Kane, Simon Scarrow and Bernard Cornwell.

Reviews for A Day of Reckoning

'Top class adventure writing, with action that moves as fast and keen as a whetted blade.' Ian Ross
'A fascinating and thrilling tale set in eighth-century Europe, with vivid battle scenes and well-rounded characters.' Alex Gough

A Day of Reckoning

In the wild lands of Norway, Hunlaf must quell a violent revolt in Matthew Harffy's new historical adventure. 
Northumbria, AD 794. Those who rule the seas, rule the land. None know the truth of this more than the Vikings. To compete with the seafaring raiders, the king of Northumbria orders the construction of his own longships under the command of oath-sworn Norseman, Runolf.

When the Vikings attack again, the king sends cleric turned warrior, Hunlaf, on a mission to persuade the king of Rogaland into an alliance. But Hunlaf and Runolf have other plans; kin to seek out, old scores to settle, and a heretical tome to find in the wild lands of the Norse.

Their voyage takes them into the centre of a violent uprising. A slave has broken free of his captors and, with religious fervour, is leading his fanatical followers on a rampage - burning all in his path. Hunlaf must brave the Norse wilderness, and overcome deadly foes, to stop this madman. Can he prevent a night of flames and slaughter?

'Absolutely gripping storytelling' Angus Donald 

'Nothing less than superb' Historical Novel Society 

'Harffy's writing just gets better and better' Jemahl Evans
