'A mighty narrative of kings and popes, battles and massacres... A tremendously good read.' Sunday Telegraph Magazine
'At last, a book that sheds much-needed light on those 1,000 years between Roman Britain and the Norman conquest that we call the dark ages.' Sue Arnold, Guardian
'Holland tells a cracking tale, vividly bringing this neglected era of monks, popes, knights and serfs back to life.' David Sinclair, Tribune
'Holland is a vigorous, fluent, and selectively well-informed writer. He has gifts of imagination and sensitivity to text and mood.' Felipe Fernandez-Armesto, The Times
'A tremendously good read, which will no doubt gain more accolades and many more readers.' Noel Malcolm, Sunday Telegraph
