Thank you James for this great write up:
On Thursday 10th October 2024, at the monthly Llanilltud Ladies Group meeting in Bethel Baptist Church Hall, Llantwit Major, the ladies were treated to an evocative talk by renowned local author and respected artist Martin Kaye about his recently published trilogy of books.
He read passages from the books giving a tantalising flavour of the story and whetting everyone’s appetites to read more. The story reading was accompanied by a PowerPoint presentation which gave the background of historical facts, researched as the basis to complete his novels.
Martin’s trilogy explores re-incarnation and focuses on three main figures, Tim, Anya and Philomena, modern day characters who, over time, discover their links with the past.
The novels link modern lives to those of historical figures from the King Arthur myths and legends period known as the Dark Ages. This was a time when there were very few written records, during the post Roman period dating from the late 400’s AD to the early 500’s AD. The books chart the career of Arth, an emerging hero of Britannia and how he achieves success at the battle at Badon Field to thwart the advance of the Anglo Saxon supremacy.
The three characters are caught up with a mix of romance and tragedy stretching over time with the third book in the trilogy ending in an intriguing, tantalising conclusion.
The Book Titles are: On Badon Field, A Banner of Dark Shadows and The Fallen and the Fled.
A must read.
