Hot off the Press
Don't Let Them Take You Alive! In this historical novel set in third century Europe, Alemannic chieftain Berand has lost the woman he loves. Through courage and skill he perseveres, leading his fellow warriors into battles that challenge the existence of two empires. But one of those is the powerful Roman Empire governed by a ruthless, cunning emperor. Berand discovers courage and leadership do not guarantee survival over brute might - or the implacable revenge of a blood feud. That One Man Should Die, by SM Glover, is available on Amazon.
