The Welsh Warrior's Wonder

By Arianwen Nunn

It is 1170, and Prince Madog of Wales is not the kind of prince who dreams of battlefields. He dreams of ships, tides, and the hard line of the horizon beyond the Welsh coast, stuff of the old tales that whisper of lands across the western ocean.

At court, dreams are dangerous. Madog's older warrior brothers see his love of the sea as a weakness and his growing influence as a threat. When a plot against him tightens into something deadly, Madog has only one clear choice: leave or die.

With him goes Rhyrid, his loyal younger brother, and together they make a desperate break for freedom in two ships. Their destination is not a mapped port or a friendly kingdom, but the unknown: a westward voyage across the Atlantic, chasing rumour, legend, and the chance to build a life beyond their brothers' reach.

The sea does not care about royal blood. Storms, hunger, sickness, and fear test the crew with every league. Leadership becomes a constant trial. Madog must prove he can be more than a visionary, while Rhyrid faces the brutal truth that courage is not the same as being ready. Behind them lies the threat of pursuit and betrayal, because plots rarely end at the shoreline.

When they finally reach uncharted lands, the brothers discover that survival is only the beginning. What waits beyond the surf is real, strange, and life-altering and the choices Madog makes there will determine not only who he becomes but what kind of story will follow his name.

Perfect for young readers of historical adventure, this is a Welsh prince-and-brother-bond story set in the Middle Ages, featuring court intrigue, an ocean crossing, and the high-stakes leap from legend into the unknown.
