There is no remedy; you have been a busy rebel and therefore this is appointed for your reward. 1549Edward VI sits on the throne, dominated by a scheming government led by his uncle, the Duke of Somerset. Religious, social, and political reform gathers pace, dividing a bankrupt nation. Captain John Crofts returns from the campaigns in Boulogne to find his homeland changed, his culture eroded, and his language forbidden. Whisked up in a growing tide of discontent, Captain Crofts soon finds himself at the forefront of a brutal and deadly rebellion against the crown. But how far will people be willing to go to defend their identity and culture, and how far will a government be willing to go to repress them? Schism is the epic fictional tale of the brutal and bloody 1549 Prayer Book Rebellion.
