SAVAGE

England, 1643. Civil war has begun, and survival belongs to the ruthless.

Robert Savage is only twenty-two, yet he has already fought in the bloody battles of Southam, Edgehill, and Brentford. A former London printer with no noble birth or family influence, Savage earns his reputation the hard way-through courage, discipline, and an unflinching willingness to stand and fight when others flee.

After the brutal defence of Brentford helps save London from Royalist capture, Savage is summoned before Parliament's high command, where influential figures such as John Hampden and Oliver Cromwell recognise his potential. Promoted to captain and given command of his own company, he is sent to a fever-ridden garrison at Aylesbury, where inexperienced recruits, entitled officers, and deadly camp sickness threaten to destroy the regiment before the enemy ever arrives.

Driven by personal loss and a fierce sense of justice, Savage must forge his men into a fighting force while navigating the dangerous politics, divided loyalties, and brutal realities of the English Civil War. But in a world where honour is defended by steel and survival comes at a terrible cost, Savage soon learns that leadership can be as deadly as battle itself.

Rich in historical detail and packed with action, *Savage: Flag of Truce* is a gripping historical adventure perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, Simon Scarrow, and Michael Arnold.
