Книги Brand und Mord., Der Britannishengler (Die Britanniensaga), by Sven R Kantelhardt, is about the turbulent times when Britain relied on foreign mercenaries for its protection. Saxons and Frisians came en masse to join the army of legendary leader Hengist who rose to the role of the regent of the British high king.
But intrigues drove a wedge between the Britons and their mercenaries. And the Nordic Germans rose against their overlords. The whole of Britain was plunged into blood and fire. Daughter Rowena of Hengist and her old love Ceretic fled to the farthest corners of the world while the Saxon ship captain Ordulf, of Dithmarsch, was trapped deeper and deeper in a bloody feud. In his quest for a new home, he leads his team until the northern realm of gigantic Hutens. As in Volume 1 of "Hengist & Horsa," the novel draws on the sparse written and archeological sources of the Migration Period in modern northern Germany and the British Isles to create a realistic atmosphere. At the point where these resources dwindle, the author conscientiously continues the myths already woven into the first volume from the world of Nordic seafarers and Celts
