Archer (Hengist: People of the Horse Book 1)

Description

Archer is the sort of boy things happen to. Orphaned as a baby, his gifts make him different from other kids. He doesn’t understand why he’s so much stronger and faster than other boys; why a sword feels so right in his hand; or how every arrow he looses at a target will hit the center, even if his eyes are closed.

At the Beltane ritual, he must fight his friends to see who is most worthy. But his real battle is with an enemy whose callous disrespect for the natural order brings dangerous consequences.
