Banished by those he loved; how far would he go for redemption?
449AD Old Saxony
Octa, the son of a mighty Saxon warlord, stands in the shield wall for the first time, eager to make a name for himself. But instead of the promised battle glory, fear overpowers him, and he flees the battle, causing the death of his cousin and bringing shame to his family. Disowned by his father, and hunted by his own people, Octa is spurred on by his mother’s vision forhis future, a promise of greatness to come.A chance encounter with a wiry traveller offers Octa a chance of redemption with a quest to retrieve a sacred weapon. To do this, Octa must travel to Britannia, a nation abandoned by the Roman Empire and unable to defend itself from its many enemies who smell weakness and riches . Joining the famous warlords Hengist and Horsa, Octa travels west to forge his future and redeem his past. He must succeed where others have failed. He must find the lost spear of Woden.
Set against the harsh, war-torn backdrop of 5th-century Britannia—a land abandoned by the Romans and ripe for conquest—Wodens Spear is an absolute thrill ride through history. Donovan Cook masterfully blends historical intrigue with fast-paced action, immersing readers in the brutality and chaos of the era. And Octa? He’s the kind of flawed, complex hero you can’t help but root for.
With warlords Hengist and Horsa leading the charge and enemies lurking at every turn, Octa’s journey isn’t just about survival—it’s about destiny.
A must-read for fans of historical epics, Norse mythology, and underdog warriors rising from the ashes.
