A smoky orange background shows a nightmarish battle scene with the silhouettes of warriors, some on horseback, wielding swords, bows, and axes. The text reads An epic voyage begins. After the defeat at Hastings, the failure of rebellions and the devastation of the North, England desperately needs a new hero. Will Siward of Gloucester be that man? Beside the text is historical fiction novel Rising from the Ruins. The cover features the nightmare battle scene with a long-haired man in a mail shirt and a blonde woman in a brown dress and hood. https://mybook.to/RisingfromtheRuins
