407 A.D.

Chaos sweeps the Roman Empire. The legions stationed in Britannia have elected their own emperor - Constantinus - who has vowed to safeguard the island's interests. But when Constantinus takes all of Britannia's military might with him to Gaul to legitimise his claim, the Britons are left open to attack by barbarians on all sides.

Meanwhile, the king of the most powerful Pictish tribe has died leaving a crisis of succession. Tribal quarrels and rivals for the crown plunge the north into civil war at the worst possible time. King Cunedag of the Votadini steps in to help unite the Picts under a single king. But is a high king of the Picts a good idea, and will he prove to be a friend or foe to the vulnerable Britons who have suddenly found themselves beyond Rome's protection?

The Pictish Crown is the second part of a trilogy which tells the story of the legendary King Cunedag; a dark age warlord who went on to build the Kingdom of Gwynedd from the ashes of post-Roman Britain.
