«You can fight, boy. Now you must learn to lead.” AD 451. The Dark Ages. Could YOU lead a barbarian warband? Keep them out of trouble? Deal with your murderous rivals? Carve a path to victory, sword-in-hand, wading through the mayhem while the sky fills with Hunnish arrows? That’s the challenge facing young Prince Hengest. Saxon slave raiders have taken his sister, so now he must lead his pagan warriors into the middle of Attila the Hun's apocalyptic invasion of the Roman Empire! All will be well as long as the shieldwall holds. An action-packed tale in the tradition of Conan and Young Gladiator, Shieldwall: Barbarians! is most certainly not for the faint hearted. No basic training. No qualms.
No dragons. No wizards.
Just armies clashing and shields splitting as men of grim purpose decide the fate of the Empire.
