Bonus Book October 2023: ‘Soldier of Ages: Tettenhall’ by Chris Edgerly

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Peter Kendrick awakens in the Junction with his memory erased; he has volunteered to join the Time Guardians, alien beings who monitor events on the Timeline of human existence to help maintain balance in the universe. As chaos increases, the stability of the Timeline is threatened, and the Guardians train elite soldiers to fight in battles across history to ensure their outcomes and preserve order. Peter’s first mission hurtles him back to 10th Century England where he joins the Anglo Saxons and their warrior queen, Aethelfled, to drive out Viking invaders. Navigating the Middle Ages is challenging enough, but suddenly Peter is haunted by a mysterious voice from his past, a past obscured by the very technology used to send him through time. The deeper his mission goes, the more he questions his purpose in it - along with his very identity. A gripping sci fi adventure through time that immerses its reader in the rich era of medieval England, Soldier of Ages begins the journey of a man trained to win wars across time while fighting not to lose himself.
