Reviewed by Discovering Diamonds The author is obviously passionate about his subject and the period - the aftermath of the Norman Conquest at the Battle of Hastings, 1066. He develops his characters with that same passion, bringing to life the bewilderment and devastation of the English and the crowing, and, in part, equal disbelief of the conquering Normans.

Author Information

G. K. Holloway did several jobs after leaving school before taking A Levels at his local college and later a degree in History and Politics at Coventry University. Once he had graduated, he spent the next twenty years working in education in and around Bristol. After reading a biography about Harold Godwinson, he studied the late Anglo-Saxon era in detail and discovered a time of papal plots, court intrigues, family feuds, loyalties, betrayals, assassinations and a few battles. When he had enough material to weave together fact and fiction, he produced his award-winning novel, '1066: What Fates Impose', the first in a series about the Norman Conquest. G. K. Holloway lives in Bristol with his wife and two children.
