Peter Fox is an historian, archaeologist and author whose work has seen him munching on spiders in the steamy jungles of Papua New Guinea, trying not to get lost in Australia’s vast national parks and exploring the major Viking sites across the UK, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany - and of course the fjords of Norway. While working (daydreaming) at the National Museum of Australia, Peter found a little-remarked passage in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle about an unlikely truce between the Vikings and the Britons of Dumnonia, one the last great British kingdoms of the Dark Ages. Nobody knows exactly why these sworn enemies decided to join forces, but Peter was determined to find the answer. Or make one up. The Wolves of Dumnonia saga tells that tale. Peter is passionate about bringing the stories of everyday people in the Dark Ages to life. His post-graduate research on living history for the University of Canberra has focused on the different ways we remember the Vikings and tell their stories and why even today they have such a grip on our collective imagination. Peter now lives with his wife Jo, son Ethan, and whippet Lola in the beautiful English Lake District, where the ghosts of the Norse settlers can be heard in the many Old Norse names that pepper the Lakeland landscape. Peter is currently completing the fourth instalment of the Wolves of Dumnonia series.
