REVISED AND UPDATED WITH NEW CHAPTERS. Charles "THE HAMMER" was born the bastard son of the Leader of the Franks, disowned by his father and imprisoned by his stepmother, yet rose from obscurity to unite the kingdoms of Gaul and face the greatest army to invade Gaul since the Romans. Along the way, he had to overcome recalcitrant nobles, power-hungry bishops, and the fierce determination of one impossible, unfathomable woman. This is the story of a man who saved a kingdom. It is also the story of a man who refused to be king.
The author brings history to life in this adventurous, inspiring, and bold story of a hero of the west who stood firm like a rock in the flood of his time. True history, you may never have heard before, is richly woven into a plot that moves at a galloping pace.
