There is a fascinating period of British history, a period of time that is merely the subject of speculation by historians because basically, it is missing. It shouldn't be, it was in a time when speech was eloquent and scholars held great knowledge; there were generations of families, kings and queens, laws and legend, rich cultures with skilled craftsmen. It is thought that men of medicine and religion were highly trained and highly respected and freely roamed the lands enjoying immunity and protection wherever they went. Why then, when other nations were recording every last details of their heritage and history, is there nothing from Britain? There is one simple answer, the Romans took it all.
In the year 43AD Rome's forces landed on the south eastern shores of Britain, it was the second attempt at expanding their glorious empire onto the isle and the Roman governors and their generals wasted no time in subjugating and assimilating the British people. When the brave resisted Rome turned its might against the people's religion and heritage. To defeat the rebellion they would strike at the heart of the country, they would annihilate the record keepers, the Druids. And once this was accomplished they would write their own, and as always, very biased version of events.
In a series of three books, Loyalty, Rebellion and Vengeance, Britannica chronicles the impact of the Roman invasion upon the people of Britannica, the rebellion of King Caratacus and the uprising of Queen Boudicca.
It is a story based upon true events using historical records, facts and hypothesis, and including characters both real and imaginary. The trilogy follows one small family of ancient and royal bloodline who believe they have a fundamental right to freedom in their own country. They will not be called Roman, not at any cost, and are determined to fight against the might of an empire.
Britannica may be a million miles from the truth, it is merely a story of what might have been and what could have happened.
