God's Vindictive Wrath - novel by Charles Cordell

God’s Vindictive Wrath – Novel

From the carnage of Edgehill, via Oxford, the clash at Aylesbury and peace talks at Colnbrook to the barricades at Brentford – each character must face the brutal reality of war. This story takes a fresh approach. It is not based on a single hero. It does not take sides. Its voices – ordinary men and women – face each other in the chaos of Britain in civil war. All have answered a call to save England. Now only an English mile separates them on the battlefield.

Published by Myrmidon and reviewed in The Times, July 2022.
