5.0 out of 5 stars Didn't want a large kingdom, just an absolute one., Jun 6 2004
By William S. Kalenborn (Rochester, MN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Conscience of the King (Paperback)
This novel is the "autobiography" of Cerdic, founder of the kingdom of Wessex, root of the British royal family tree. The interesting thing about the conscience of the king is that he has none. He starts as a Roman, with a desire for absolute power and no scruples, and ends up with his own small kingdom. I'm very fond of Alfred Duggan's work.
