Award-winning writer and storyteller Simon Heywood.Strange Majesty: legends of Vortigern and the forgotten kings of Britain
... they rode there, helmed
With a strange majesty that the heathen horde
Remembered after all were overwhelmed ...
The famous tales of Arthur are only one small part of a long cycle of legends of the kings of ancient Britain: tales of heroes and villains, courage and cowardice, glory and crime, and triumph, tragedy and treason, stretching down generations, coming to a head in a final war between the Britons and the seaborne Saxon invaders. Award-winning writer and storyteller Simon Heywood combines music, song and storytelling to bring new life to a forgotten treasure trove of tales, remembering the strange majesty of the kings of Albion, from Brutus to Belin, Locrin to Lear, Arthur, Merlin and Vortigern.
