Godfrid the Dane makes his first appearance in the Gareth & Gwen Medieval Mysteries in the first book, The Good Knight. He comes to Anglesey at the behest of Prince Cadwaladr, but quickly realizes the deal he’s made is not quite what he thought, and Cadwaladr is not worthy of his allegiance or alliance. He takes it upon himself to keep Gwen safe and gives her up to Gareth when he comes to Ireland in search of her.
He and Gareth grow to respect each other, and Godfrid returns to Gwynedd in The Fallen Princess, on a quest to find the Book of Kells, which has been stolen, and again in The Lost Brother, in search of allies in his conflict with Ottar of Dublin, who has usurped Godfrid’s the throne of Dublin. In both instances, Godfrid ends up aiding Gareth and Gwen in their investigations.
In the previous book, The Viking Prince, Godfrid is faced with a mystery of his own, at the end of which his brother is crowned King of Dublin and Godfrid is betrothed to Caitriona, his friend Conall’s sister.
The Irish Bride is the next chapter in the story ...
