To say this is a loose version of the aftermath of the 1066 Battle of Hastings is being generous. William, Duke of Normandy just might have won a major battle if he can only find the body of King Harold, who may or may not have been shot through the eye with an arrow. He has been given a body with an arrow in its eye but it is not the King. He sends a small band of men on a secret mission to find the King under the guise of taking a survey of England. To say they are inept is being generous. Add in a few Monty Pythonesque vikings, miscellaneous Saxons and some pretty useless horses and you have the makings of a medieval mess...er comedy. Includes some laugh-out-loud moments and a quite a bit of silliness. Fans of "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" will enjoy this one. This is part of a series of medieval satires available on Kindle.
