The Serpent Sword (Bernicia Chronicles Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
He couldn’t quite believe that Beobrand had left with the men who had threatened to kill him. He had fallen in with them so naturally, it made Coenred wonder if he was wrong about the young man from Cantware. Coenred had always made up his mind about people quickly, and once he’d decided to be someone’s friend, he was unswervingly loyal. He had been sure that Beobrand was a good person and even after his sudden departure, Coenred still liked to think that he wasn’t the same as the other warriors. The month of Blodmonath, with the slaughter of the cattle, made way into Geola. The monastery began to prepare for the feast of Modraniht, the mothers’ night, when they celebrated the birth of the Lord Jesu. As the preparations progressed, Abbot Fearghas talked increasingly about the story of the birth of the Christ. Doubt began to gnaw at Coenred. Why had Beobrand decided to join the warriors despite his protestations about their intentions? What was it that drove him?
