Synopsis

In the historical novel Wulf the Saxon by G. A. Henty, readers are transported back to the time of the Norman Conquest of England. The book intricately weaves together themes of war, loyalty, and honor through the captivating story of Wulf, a young Saxon thane who finds himself caught in the midst of the conflict between the Normans and Saxons. Henty's detailed descriptions and vivid imagery bring the medieval setting to life, immersing readers in a world of knights, battles, and chivalry. The author's writing style is easy to follow, making this an engaging read for both young adults and adults alike. Wulf the Saxon is a testament to Henty's skill in crafting historical fiction that educates and entertains. The book showcases Henty's extensive knowledge of history, particularly the medieval period, and his passion for storytelling. His ability to blend historical accuracy with fictional narrative makes Wulf the Saxon a valuable contribution to the genre of historical fiction. I highly recommend Wulf the Saxon to anyone interested in history, adventure, and medieval literature.

    Mars the Warning 
    Book 6 of 6 – the reckoning 
    This final story in the series I have written is summarized below; 
    Six months after humanity's retreat from Mars, crystalline ships materialize around Earth in silent siege. Dr. Lin Mei deciphers their ultimatum: Depart the solar system or face annihilation—not as vengeance, but as cosmic stewardship. While General Drake advocates futile resistance, Lin orchestrates the Exodus, a desperate evacuation of 50 million aboard prototype starships. Billions are left behind as Earth's systems collapse under Martian-induced blackouts. The Martians dismantle orbital defenses with terrifying precision, proving resistance impossible. Lin's final message—"We understand. We will not return"—echoes into the void as humanity flees. Decades later, on distant Kepler-186f, Lin watches the first post-exodus generation play, humbled but hopeful. The Martians, having preserved Earth as a warning, vanish into cosmic silence. Humanity's reckoning ends not with extinction, but with exile—a second chance to evolve beyond conquest, under alien suns.  
    I do hope you enjoy this sixth instalment, and its only $3. 
    the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 plus minutes sets the scene, so to speak, this is heavy metal first but give it a chance and you will be surprised (I felt the martian beings would be extremely angry over humans trying to steal their planet hence the sound) ends with a warning sound music track like an alarm, 1 minutes plus.  
    The book itself runs to about 35 minutes and is narrated in my own voice.  
    I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!
