by Ellen Alice Edda Annemarie Alpsten (Author)
Young and beautiful Gytha Godwinson is the envy of England when her father Harold seizes the country's crown in early 1066. However, treachery tears her house, her family and everything she holds dear apart. Soon triumph turns to terror as an evil star appears, heralding the end of an era and a new beginning for Britain. Her family and the realm seem cursed, but even as she suffers loss, betrayal and humiliation, Gytha is determined to regain what is rightfully hers. She survives the walk through the furnace, which is the conquest and goes so much further. In a time when women are perceived as cup-bearers, peace-weavers and memory-keepers, Gytha dares the unprecedented: she makes world history.
In a stunning re-telling of 1066, international bestselling author Ellen Alpsten has created a captivating new heroine in Gytha Godwinson. The Last Princess bridges myth and modernity: witness the demise of a cursed kingdom and the emergence of a new empire. The Last Princess bridges myth and modernity.
