A tale of courage and true heroism set during the reign of England's greatest king!

The year is AD 877, and King Alfred has succeeded in driving the marauding Danes from his kingdom - for the time being. Edwin and his sister Edith are just beginning to enjoy their liberty when, one terrible night, their lives change forever. Separated from one another, and caught up in the turmoil of their times, Edwin and Edith must learn to discern between truth and falsehood, friend and foe, or be swept away on a tide of treachery.

A blind bard, a lame blacksmith, and an ambitious warrior all have their role in this tale of courage and true heroism set during the reign of Alfred the Great.

"Captivating! Among the Great moves forward at a quick pace and kept me turning the pages to find out what happens next." Emily Hall, Author of Becoming Lottie Moon

Among the Great

As thunder crashes overhead, condemnation throbbing in its ominous tones, Edwin flees from the kingdom he has betrayed. With every passing mile, his hopes of ever earning King Alfred’s forgiveness grow fainter. But while he wrestles with guilt and seeks for refuge among any who will shelter him, he has no idea of the great danger closing in on his family. Unless he can face the truth about himself and find the courage to return, all may be lost.

Journey back in time with this fast-paced, soul-stirring adventure that immerses you once again in the fascinating and complex world of Alfred the Great.
