Though fierce battles and mindless drinking may at first appear to be the central theme of the Middle Ages, there is much more than meets the eye to this fascinating time period.

Honoring history and remembering Anglo-Saxon ancestors for their valiancy, courage and compelling human nature is a concept Pauline Sabin Moore hopes to share in her historical novel, "Brightfire: A Tale of Sutton Hoo."

"I want to show in my book that Anglo-Saxons were humans, just as we are, with the same feelings," Moore said. "Where and how they lived may have seemed dangerous, but they had a love of beauty that is simply admirable."

A sequel to her first published novel, "Storm Frost," Moore tells the story of the cruel and merciless King Eorpwald, son of King Raedwald of Sutton Hoo, whose hostility towards Christianity and innate jealousy puts his entire kingdom in danger after his father dies.

By covering actual historical events and people during and after the reign of King Raedwald, "Brightfire: A Tale of Sutton Hoo" offers insight into the colorful daily life of Anglo-Saxon culture and reminds readers that there is always something to be learned from the past.

"It is possible to be accepting of another faith and achieve what is good, right and beautiful," Moore said.
