'A stunning new telling of the Robert the Bruce story'
'A gloriously illustrated picture-book version, with expertly concise text by one of Scotland's finest novelists'
'A lively pictorial account of the drama. Bolstered by Jill Calder's vibrant illustrations, it is as much for older children as adults, but avoids over-simplifying the battle and the complex factors that led to it'
'This unique book will enthral readers of all ages'
