In chapter 30 “The Ebb and Flow” of Boudica and The Butcher, Boudica is swinging like a pendulum between the ecstasy of success and despair of failure because her mission is hard. More focus on Boudica’s state of mind, instead of war strategy and atrocities, as the war keeps drawing Gideon away from her. Trying to capture a hint of the loneliness and alienation of those on the home front during a war.
Boudica’s inner conflict can mean only one thing, Olga is coming to her rescue in the next chapter to help Boudica find perspective and direction. Meanwhile, the hand of Boudica’s secret fairy godmother Cyrus works behind the scenes.
