Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Wulnoth the Wanderer: A Story of King Alfred of England" by Herbert Inman is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the adventures of Wulnoth, a thrall child, as he navigates the trials and tribulations during the time of King Alfred of England. The narrative intertwines themes of friendship, loyalty, and heroism against the backdrop of Viking invasions and Saxon struggles for survival. The opening of the story introduces King Hardacnute of Norway and his family, establishing their precarious kingdom. Concurrently, Wyborga the Wise foretells significant upheaval that will affect both the king and the young Prince Guthred. Amidst these troubles, Wulnoth, the son of a thrall, arrives on the scene when he and his parents seek refuge from their oppressor, Berwulf the Viking. Wulnoth forms a strong bond with Prince Guthred, leading to adventures that promise courage and destiny. As the tale unfolds, Wulnoth's journey of self-discovery and heroism begins to take shape, setting the stage for a tale of valor and camaraderie.
