Berandinzium Villam (The Wihtwara Trilogy)

Berandinzium Villam, (Brading Villa) is the 2nd book in the historical fiction series, The Wihtwara Trilogy. It focuses on the life of the Wihtwara on Wihtland under Roman rule and expands to the mainland of Britannia and abroad to Antioch and the Silk Road. We witness through the eyes and spirit of the main character, Eyvindr Wahl, the torment of Rome’s cruel culture, as he wrestles with his own Pagan spiritual world with that of the intense rules and structure of the Roman religion of Mithras. Archaeological finds on Wihtland (Isle of Wight) now prove the mystical Eastern religions were indeed practised on the island. Eyvindr walks in two worlds and tries to honour both faith ways. In the end, the Nornia (the three Fates) win and his struggle ends.The truth behind the genocide of a whole race of devout Pagan people, Wihtwara in 686A.D. that has laid hidden for centuries is exposed fully in Berandinzium Villam. Three despotic Roman Emperors relentlessly tortured the early Christians over several centuries.The trauma lay embedded in the generations to follow. Christians grew up with hate in their hearts. When Constantine declared Christianity to be the only official religion, the Roman Catholic Church was born, and Gnosticism and Paganism were declared heretical. The relentless persecution and death of Pagans throughout the known world began and has continued ever since.
