Wulf undertakes daring feats, including capturing a castle in the Welsh wars, rescuing his shipwrecked monarch, and fighting Norsemen at the Battle of Stamford Bridge. Along with his comrades, Wulf unwaveringly supports King Harold through a series of adventures that culminate in the Battle of Hastings.

In these books, young characters, inspired by their encounters with real-life figures, perform heroic deeds. Wulf the Saxon is historical fiction at its finest, offering boys and girls an enthralling adventure in the medieval world.
