Conceived in passion but born in shame, William suffers endless taunts and jeers as a child. But, like his father, the Duke of Normandy, before him, he is determined to have what he wants out of life - and from the age of five, when he leaves his low-born but broken-hearted mother behind for the pomp and ceremony of the court, he gets it. Though his father recognises William's claim to the dukedom, there are others who dispute it, and William will have many struggles and be forced to make countless sacrifices before he can truly live up to the name of Conqueror.
