In a breathtaking tale of narrative poetry, the saga unfolds during the tumultuous period when Robert Bruce, Earl of Carrick, finds himself exiled from Scotland, hunted by the English and their allies. As Bruce returns across the sea from the Island of Rachrin, he is forced to land near the hostile Artonish Castle on the rugged coast of Argylshire. Seeking refuge from the stormy seas, he implores Lord Ronald, the Lord of the Isles, for shelter—unbeknownst to him, its the very day of Ronalds marriage feast to the enchanting Edith of Lorn. Bruces unexpected arrival disrupts the festivities, igniting a fierce divide among the guests one faction eager to rally behind Bruce for the Scottish crown, the other ready to condemn him as a traitor. Only the intervention of Lord Ronald and a visiting Abbot prevents bloodshed. Bruce swiftly retreats to the Isle of Skye and then to Ayrshire, gathering an army determined to reclaim Scottish independence. Victories follow as they march toward the pivotal Battle of Bannockburn, where Bruce faces the English forces led by the son of the Hammer of the Scots, outnumbered two to one. Will Bruce—the so-called fugitive and turncoat—prevail against Englands might? And will the beautiful Edith choose loyalty to her blood relatives fighting for England, or stand by her betrothed, Lord Ronald, as they march into battle for Scotland? (Introduction by Godsend)
