Stormbird

He suddenly remembered his mother telling him the mistle thrushes were the last birds in the air before a great storm. Country folk would see them flying alone on the wind and know a tempest was on its way.

Stormbird is the first episode in the extraordinary Wars of the Roses, in which two families plunged England into a terrible civil war that lasted thirty years.

Conn Iggulden's brilliant new historical novel and the opening to his greatest series yet.
