Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. He built God's house. He could not save his own.One man. One crown. One prophecy.One kingdom lost forever.Edward was the last king of Saxon England - and the last man who wanted the throne. Exiled as a boy, crowned as a pawn, married to the daughter of the man who murdered his brother, he ruled a land he could not hold and loved a God who asked him to let it go.While Norman dukes sharpened their swords and his own court plotted his fall, Edward did the unthinkable: he knelt. He fed lepers. He forgave traitors. He poured his kingdom's gold into stone and prayer, raising Westminster Abbey as the wolves circled.On Christmas Day, 1065, as his great church was consecrated, he saw the future in a fever dream - a green tree cut in two, England drowning in blood, and a shoot rising from the stump. Eight days later, he was dead.Nine months after that, his crown was in the mud at Hastings. His kingdom was gone. His line was extinct.By every measure of kings, Edward the Confessor was a failure.And yet a thousand years later, the Normans are dust. The Conqueror's castles are ruins. The Domesday Book is a relic.But the abbey stands.And the man who lost everything is the only English king the Church ever called a saint.He lost a kingdom. He gained a halo. Which mattered more?Sweeping from the exile's road to the deathbed prophecy, from the leper's touch to the arrow at Hastings, from the silence of a king to the roar of a cult built by monks, widows, and peasants, The Confessor is the mind-blowing true story of power and prayer, failure and faith.It asks the question every age must answer: When the wolves are at the door, do you reach for a sword. or do you build an altar?For readers of The Pillars of the Earth and The Last Kingdom, this is the forgotten story of the king who chose heaven over heirs - and changed England forever.His England wasn't a place. It was a prayer.And the prayer remains. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
