Silver Hammer, Golden Cross: Book Six of The Circle of Ceridwen Saga
Book Six of The Circle of Ceridwen Saga

It is the final decade of the ninth century. The Peace between Wessex and the Danes long-settled in the Danelaw erodes. A new onslaught of Danes attacks Angle-land, trying once and for all to destroy Ælfred.

Ceric of Kilton, now a young man, travels across Kingdoms to visit his friend, Hrald of Four Stones – and to see Ashild, who he desires for his wife. But renewed hostilities threaten Ceric’s hopes for deeper ties between strongholds.

And hundreds of leagues away on the Baltic island of Gotland, Hrald’s father Sidroc the Dane must defy his Gods.

The revered Hammer of Thor. The sacred Cross of the Christians. And the conflict that pits two beliefs, two great war-chiefs, and three young people against each other.

Meticulously researched and thrillingly brought to life

    Oh Octavia, these are wonderful! I’m on the verge of finishing the Claiming and have 2 more by my side.

    I intended to read these during my travels—but have become engrossed with them and may to seek them out at WH Smith (now Smith)

    I have just finished book 6, and again was rapt from beginning to end. It kept me company while I spent the past 4 days in hospital!
    Now I cannot wait to find out what happens next..there must be a next, please Olivia?

    I am now waiting for #7. I love the Circle Series!

  • Sharon Wilt March 25, 2017, 11:49 am

    I, too, just finished Book #6. It was a wonderful continuation of the story. I almost cried when it was finished, because I wanted it to go on and on. Historical fiction is fascinating to me and the research that must go into writing books of this sort must be immense. That being said, please work hard to write another one. And quickly.

    Just finished book 6 . Ohhhh I can feel a book 7 …please say this saga is continuing..I can see the history unfolding. May your pen continue to work the magic ❤

    I was looking forward to the continuation of this saga. I bought the book as soon as it came out. There’s an interesting development in this book that I hope is continued. I love historical novels and I believe the author does a good job of bringing us into the ninth century. Which is one of the most interesting times for me to read about. I can’t wait for the next book.

  • Edna Chambers March 19, 2017, 11:54 pm

    Just finished book #6 at 5:00 a.m. this morning. Please tell me that you’re planning on more Circle books! Are you working on #7?

  • Frances Meadows March 17, 2017, 8:18 pm

    Just finished all 6 books. Loved all but felt book 6 as being unfinished that there is more to this saga. Please say there is a book 7 coming.

  • Diane Murray March 13, 2017, 8:53 pm

    Another lovely book in a wonderful series. I have enjoyed all the books so far. Each is well researched and most importantly well written.

  • Ginger March 13, 2017, 1:06 am

    Please tell me you are working on Book 7 of this wonderful tale of interesting characters! I loved every minute of reading this history made live and personal. Great story, wonderful explanations of daily life in the 9th century and edge of my seal drama wondering what was coming next. Please, Please continue!!

    I read the first book when i saw it as a recommendation on the “Outlander” FB page, then quickly raced through each one. This is a fantastic series and I am hooked. Was very sad at the end of book six as I wanted to start book seven! Hope it is in the works.
