Set in eighth-century England during the Dark Ages, this study delves into the reign of Offa, a powerful warlord of Mercia. It explores his military campaigns against Northumbria, Wessex, and Welsh tribes, highlighting the rise of Mercia as a dominant force under his leadership. The narrative also examines the contributions of previous rulers like Penda and the warrior tradition that shaped Mercian society. Chris Peers aims to illuminate the lesser-known history of Mercia and its kings, providing context to this pivotal era before the arrival of the Danes.
