BADON is the gritty tale of love, romance, loyalty, betrayal and war behind the legend of Arthur. Based on the theories of numerous historians BADON explains how "Arthur" was never a name but a title conferred on courageous warriors of the northern Celtic tribes. This is the story of a Celtic chieftain, who against all odds, unified an army of rival tribes and stood against the invading hordes of Saxons, Frisians, Jutes and Angles in the 6th century. This is not the romantic French version, but a historical-based tale of clashing cultures, rival religions, political power, gamesmanship, intrigue and the dying aspirations of an entire race. Badon: Prologue It is the dawn of the sixth century in the troubled, misty isles of the Britons. The tribes wage constant war with one another, while the Picts from the wild northlands and marauders from Iwerddon, the emerald isle are a frequent threat. Christianity is spreading rapidly and further dividing the tribes in its push to eradicate the ancient beliefs of the Old Religion. Now, there are ominous signs that Saxons and Angles, old enemies from across the eastern sea, are intent on conquering the islands. No single tribe is powerful enough to stand against the invasion. The Britons are facing complete annihilation if they lose this battle. A great leader is needed who can unite the tribes and stand against the Saxon onslaught. King Aurelianus is seventy-four years old. Who can save Briton from extinction? Badon weaves the tales of these turbulent times, the courage and honour of the men, the mystic wisdom of the women who stand as leaders and equals, the fierce loyalty and devotion to home and tribe. Badon is a story of love and valour, intrigue and bravery, betrayal and war.

Their every encounter gives off sparks of contempt and misunderstanding. Bedivere is one of King Arthur’s companions, his marshall and war duke of his army. Handsome, remote, traditional and honor-bound, all he wants is to be a perfect warrior and serve Arthur. Only, Arthur’s people face another dark winter of deprivation and defeat at the hands of the ruthless Saxons. How can Bedivere find victory for Arthur when there is no hope? Cara of Brynaich is half-Saxon, the younger daughter of a reviled family. Her facial scars keep her apart from everyone. Her heart holds only hatred for the Saxons who betrayed her mother, murdered her father and brought her and her kin to such misery. She has no time for honor and tradition. Hope is for blind fools. She brings chaos into Bedivere’s life, while his cool indifference provokes her to ever greater excesses. When the Saxons scent the weakness of Arthur’s defenses and descend upon Mount Badon, Bedivere and Cara must find a way to fight them and not each other… This novel is part of the historical fantasy romance series, Once and Future Hearts, set in Britain during the time of King Arthur. 1.0 Born of No Man 2.0 Dragon Kin 3.0 Pendragon Rises 4.0 War Duke of Britain 5.0 High King of Britain 6.0 Battle of Mount Badon 7.0 Abduction of Guenivere 8.0 Downfall of Cornwall 9.0 Vengeance of Arthur 10.0 Grace of Lancelot 11.0 The Grail and Glory 12.0 Camlann Readers have described Tracy Cooper-Posey as “a superb story teller” and her historical fantasy romances as “written art”. Get your copy of Battle of Mount Badon today! __ Praise for Battle of Mount Badon: Cara and Bedivere are my favorite characters in this series, and their relationship is cast in monochrome, with stark pragmatism. I never had to suspend my belief to relate to these characters, which is the highest praise I can give an author. Fantastic story!! This one kept my heart rate up! Every time I thought I could relax, there was another fast paced plot twist I absolutely adore the magnificently happy ending!! I'm not sure how she does it, but Tracy continues to make each story more exciting than the last! I can't stop reading these, even when I should be sleeping! I was fascinated by the way the author wove in so many names and places and events from both the legends and historians’ best speculations on actual happenings. Yet the story also flows along with great characters and a compelling plot. It’s one of those wonderful novels that make you feel you are really there in a foreign time and place, and you feel a little smarter when you finish. Detailed, stunning, and completing engrossing. A telling of this tale that puts you directly in the action and engaged in the struggle yourself. Absolutely brilliant!! I have loved this series from the beginning and don't understand how she keeps topping the one before. But, she did it again. Tracy writes in such a way as to make you feel like YOU are living in this time In history. This story left me breathless and speechless. It is so much more than the book blurb promises! I feel like I have actually met the characters and the scenes are set so completely that I feel that I am actually present during the action. Very few authors can write so you get completely caught up in the story but Tracy Cooper-Posey is definitely at the top of that list. Incredibly engaging story that will leave you on the edge of your seat, and flipping the pages. This is well developed and beautifully written. This Book Rocks! It is difficult to find the words that will do justice to this novel. Absolutely brilliant! Tracy Cooper Posey is a totally engaging storyteller who grabs hold of you and delivers you into the story from the first word. I feel like I have actually met the characters and the scenes are set so completely that I feel that I am actually present during the action.

David Coopers book reappraises the evidence regarding the early battles for Wessex territory. It charts the sequence of battles from the c. AD 500 siege of Badon Hill, in which the Britons defeated the first Saxon attempt to gain a foothold in Wessex territory, to Langport in 710, which consolidated King Ine's position and pushed the Britons westwards. Discussion of the post-Roman British and Germanic factions provides context and background to Badon Hill, which is then covered in detail and disentangled from Arthurian legend. In considering how the opposing commanders are likely to have planned their campaigns, enduring principles of military doctrine and tactics are discussed, using examples from other periods to illustrate how these principles applied in Dark Ages Britain. Going on to follow subsequent campaigns of the West Saxons in southern Britain, a credible assessment is made of how these resulted in the establishment of a viable Wessex kingdom, two centuries after Badon. Grounded in the latest academic and archaeological evidence, David Cooper offers a number of new insights and ideas.

British Battles 493–937 deals with thirteen conflicts, either locating them correctly or explaining some of their aspects which have puzzled historians. They include the following: Mount Badon (493) at Braydon, Wiltshire; battles of the British hero Arthur (the legendary 'King Arthur') (536–7) in southern Scotland or the borders; 'Degsastan' (603) at Dawyck, on the River Tweed, Scotland; Maserfelth (642) at Forden, on the Welsh border; the Viking victory of 'Alluthèlia' (844) at Bishop Auckland, near Durham; and the English triumph of Brunanburh (937) at Lanchester, also near Durham. British Battles 493–937 is, thus, one of the most revolutionary books ever published on war in Britain and is a valuable resource for battle archeologists and research historians.

Rome's protection had been withdrawn. Britain's underbelly was exposed. The Saxons had conquered South East Britannia, but the lands further west had always eluded them. Repeatedly, they had tried to break Arthur's dominance of the West Country, but to no avail. Arthur and his stronghold of Brythonfort were a breakwater upon which the Saxon threat always faltered. But now things were different; now they had forged an alliance with a rogue British tribe and the ruthless Guertepir; now they could attack in great numbers and draw Arthur from his bastion. Their immediate goal was the restored spa town of Aquae Sulis. Above the town, the high ground of Badon Hill awaited. Here, the battle would make the ground shake. Here, the conflict would forge the destiny of Britannia once and for all.
