King of the Anglo Saxons: A Sacred History of Alfred the Great by MatthewGordonMacNeil

Summary
Born the youngest of six children to Ethelwulf of Wessex and his wife Osburga, Alfred was never meant or expected to be King of Wessex, the greatest of the English Kingdoms of the time. Through battle and sickness Alfred was thrust into the Kingship as a young man suffering with Ulcerative Colitis and facing down the Great Heathen Army, the largest Viking army ever assembled up to that time by the grandsons of Ragnar Lothbrok, hell bent on taking all of England.
Faced with such dangers Alfred nearly faltered, but his faith in God, his people, and his elder brother Edwulf helped him pull through.
In this biography, created through using both documents close to the time period such as the Anglo Saxon Chronicles, Asser's biography of the King, and retrocognition, the ability to see the past through dreams, I tell Alfred's life story from his time in Rome as a boy to the great Battle of Ethandune where England's fate was decided.Series

Exiled alongside his entire family, Harold Godwinsson, son of the Earl of Wessex and descendant of King Ethelred of Wessex, seeks nothing more than to return to his homeland and live his life in peace.

Becoming King Edward's top military man and later his successor, Harold's life intertwines with the very destiny of England itself, and his greatest battle, the Battle of Hastings, will determine the course of English history.

Born the only child of Canute Gormsson, King Gorm's eldest son, Sweyn was, by all rights, heir to the throne of Denmark upon the death of his uncle Harald, who became next in line upon Canute's untimely demise.
But, when he is forced to defend himself against an attack and later charged with murder, his life takes a course he never could have foreseen, sending him down a path which would, in time, see him lead the largest Viking invasion of England in 1013. -

Summary
When Arthur Pendragon fell at Camlann, it was expected one of his sons would inherit the throne of his Empire, but instead all turned it down, leaving Britain without a King and Arthur's vast realm without an Emperor.
To make matters worse in Germania a new King arose, Aella, who sought to destroy everything Arthur had built and conquer Britain for his people. To do this he forged alliances with rebels in Gaul and the British heartland, planning an invasion.
Merlin, Arthur's closest friend, is left in charge to sort the chaos out, and to crown a new monarch.
The question is, will the man he chooses be up to the task of defending the Arthurian Empire? Or will it collapse like so many before it?Series

Summary

The Vikings have been conquering England for the past decade, Kingdom after Kingdom falling to them. Only Wessex under its numerous Kings has survived.

A surprise Danish invasion changes all this, and throws the future of Wessex---and the future of England---into question. -

Summary
A little tribute to Thunor, the Anglo-Saxon god of Thunder and blacksmiths! He is the protector of humanity and the slayer of monsters. Thunor is the Anglo-Saxon name for Thor. I made this in a poetry class, and it was my first workshop poem too. This is in honor of my British and Germanic ancestors.

Summary
An Anglo-Saxon alpha/beta/omega love story, between those two wonderful idjits. Originally intended as part of a chain of six stories that would lead into my Supernaturally Austen series, my muse wandered off after just three, and somehow I forgot to publish two of them. So here's the first, the second to follow next year. Sword-fighting, betrayal, but no supernatural beasties – people had more than enough problems at that time as it was!
