Markham is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set in the early medieval period during the time of King Edwin of Northumbria, exploring themes of heroism, mythology, and the early struggles of the English people. The narrative introduces a vibrant cast of characters, focusing on the young warriors Coelred, Porlor, and Hereric as they embark on adventures characterized by both camaraderie and danger. At the start of the novel, the serene life of young boys at the Stillingfleet homestead is depicted as they enjoy play and innocence, surrounded by family and friends. Their carefree existence is abruptly shattered when they encounter ominous and supernatural elements, such as the nixy, leading them to a fateful decision that results in their kidnapping by sea-thieves. This perilous turn sets the stage for a thrilling adventure, exploring themes of friendship, bravery, and the harsh realities they will face as they seek to escape their captors and return home. The blurring of childhood innocence with the dangers of the adult world unfolds compellingly, promising readers a blend of excitement and deeper reflections on fate and loyalty.
