Anyone who has read the Marching With Caesar series from the beginning knows about the peculiar trait that Titus Pull us and his descendents possess. When they reach a certain level of rage, an inner demon takes over and sends them into a killing frenzy. The Titus in this series is no exception. He has earned the moniker "The Berzerker" because of his almost inhuman abilities as a killing machine.
Titus is led astray by a jealous woman and loses the love of his young life. While she marries another, Titus goes to war against the invading Danes. He has to learn to live and fight on board a ship. Once the Saxons clash with the Danes, Titus goes Berzerker and is subsequently captured. I'll say nothing more so as to avoid spoilers except to say that his life is forever changed in many ways by his experience.
I look forward to the next entry in this series. There are a number of unanswered questions and unresolved conflicts that I hope are resolved in future books. This is good stuff.1 Tony Poulsen28 1 follower

Diving deep with Titus

If you read Mr. Peake's stories on any of the Titus characters, this book is the deepest internal emotional side of the Titus family. For a youngster he tries to improve himself by not falling into foolishness. But being in the late 9th century it doesn't bode well for him. He's expected to do his killing in the battlefield but gets prodded by those in his own village for the big guy he is. Very well done ending Richard Otto3

An enthralling chapter in the Titus Lilly's tale

A nice break from the world affairs. A different era,but the perspective of the ordinary warrior is maintained. It would be nice if the current Titus was able to discover his connection to his ancestors.

I prefer stories that end with the hero riding into the setting sun with a live heroine. But I suppose your version is more realistic and sets the scene for Titus next venture. Maybe with another heroine with bigger hips. Annie15
