Towton - The hour of iron

By Darius Crowl

TWENTY-FOUR MEN. THREE DAYS OF MUD AND BLOOD. ONLY ONE WAY OUT.

March 28, 1461. At the Ferrybridge crossing, a small levy from Kent holds an impossible line against the vanguard of the House of Lancaster. When the timber walkway shatters under the weight of the assault, Captain Giles de Morley and a handful of survivors find themselves cut off behind enemy lines.

While the main Yorkist army marches blindly toward a fatal trap on the moor of Towton, Giles and his men must fight through burning gorges, misty ambushes, and heavy artillery to prevent a massacre and secure the crown.

Under the Short Spine editorial line, historical fiction delivers uncompromised pulp action: fast-paced, visceral, and forged in the bitter cold of medieval England. Perfect for fans of gritty military history and classic grimdark war stories.
