Synopsis
"Blood of Thrones" is a 50,000 word novel written in 30 days - then edited for another 30 days (NINoEdMo - N.I. Novel-Editing Month). It is now in print thanks to local Speculative Fiction publisher "The ORB".
20% of every copy sold goes to Studio NI's chosen charity, Action Cancer.
The title is a reference to Kurosawa's film "Throne of Blood". As this may suggest, the historical figure of MacBeth is a central character in the story. The action crosses over half a century, as secret societies plot against each other in 11th Century Europe.

Review
"... a breathtaking ride, a very broad canvas ..." (-- Dr Steve Flanders, School of History, Queen's University Belfast )
"An entertaining romp. It's clear that the author has done his research regarding the historical period and considering the limits which the book was written within (only 30 days to write, 30 days to edit.) he's done an incredible job- I don't know if it is his first novel or not, but it's a good effort. The book is easily accessible and I finished reading it within a day. There's also some great moments of humour within it (two characters talking about how lame/overused the twist of the hero being the villain all along being) and there's some clever references to the likes of Star Wars and the princess bride thrown in too."
