Summary
A few years into his reign, Henry IV is troubled to learn of mystic attracting followers to his revels in the Forest of Hainault. Some say he's a saint or prophet, others that he's a vision of Christ himself. Many have noticed that he resembles the old king, Richard II.
Prince Hal - always curious about the latest novelty - takes his friends to see, but his cynicism melts away in the presence of the charismatic, kingly figure, and so eventually does his sanity.
Henry must take action to restore order to his family and his kingdom, but what chance does order stand against this powerful and delicious chaos?
A reworking of Euripides' Bacchae in the world of medieval Christianity and Shakespeare's histories.

Summary
If the Troubles had taken place in Wales not Northern Ireland, if Henry IV had been Prime Minister instead of Margaret Thatcher, and if Harry Percy and Harry Lancaster had been at Eton together, English history might have looked a little like this.

Summary
The three of them have draped a tarpaulin over their bit of the trench--or what Archie calls a tarpaulin, although it's scarcely better than a thin cotton sheet worn translucent with cold sweat and the steady friction of night-tremors.
