Time is no barrier to dreams.

Two Saxon boy soldiers become unlikely friends. One is fighting alongside his father protecting King Harold in 1066. The other is in a school re-enactment. Together at the horrific conclusion of the Battle of Hastings, 21st century technology saves them. The noblest Saxon rewards them. He has also escaped Duke William and his Norman knights. 

A coin is dug up near the school. A gift is tested and reveals many secrets. These are only the beginning of the treasures uncovered and all the evidence needed that history has come alive.

Pat Strickson has taught in East Sussex, 1066 country, for over 40 years. She was a primary teacher, a Special Needs teacher and dyslexia specialist before becoming Headteacher in four local schools. She studied at Brighton University to obtain her MA in Education. She is fascinated by the history of the Saxons and Normans and the great Battle of Hastings near where she lives. She has worked with excellent teachers helping support learning for many children and their families. Saxon Magic celebrates local history. She hopes it will inspire the next generation of writers searching for treasures of the past.
