Cover Flap An English arrow ended the Viking Era when it killed King Harald of Norway at Stamford in 1066. That one arrow changed the history of all of the North Sea kingdoms, and a month later William the Conqueror began his twenty year reign of terror over England. Thirty four years after the death of Harald, when the Conqueror's son, King William II, had turned into a worse king than even his father, the same man who loosed the arrow in Stamford decided that it was past time to loose another arrow and kill another king. This is the first in a series of historical novels about that English bowman, and about the brotherhood of English archers that became the core of the resistance movement against the enslavement of the English by the psycho ruling class of Normandy. The Brotherhood, the Hood, the Hoodsmen. About The Author Skye Smith is my pen name. My ancestors were miners and shepherds near Castleton in the Peaks District of Derbyshire. I have been told by some readers that this series reminds them of Bernard Cornwell's historical novels, and have always been delighted by the comparison. This is the first of my Hoodsman series of books, and you should it before reading any of the others. All of the books contain two timelines linked by characters and places. The "current" story is set in the era of King Henry I in the 1100's, while the longer "flashback" story is set in the era of King William I after 1066. I have self-published twelve "The Hoodsman ..." books and they are: 1. Killing Kings 2. Hunting Kings 3. Frisians of the Fens 4. Saving Princesses 5. Blackstone Edge 6. Ely Wakes 7. Courtesans and Exiles 8. The Revolt of the Earls 9. Forest Law 10. Queens and Widows 11. Popes and Emperors 12. The Second Invasion
