It was her last completed novel before her death and later won the 2010 Phoenix Award.A hundred years after Artos and his Company of three hundred cavalry united Britain’s forces against the invading Saxons, the Britons have fractured once more into the petty kingdoms of the Old North. Under the growing threat of the Saxon kings of Deira and Bernicia, King Mynyddog of the Gododdin summons the second sons of the North and West to form a new Three Hundred.The Shining Company is based on the Welsh elegiac poem Y Gododdin, commemorating the fallen of the Battle of Catraeth circa 600 CE. It was traditionally attributed to the bard Aneirin, a supposed eyewitness.

 All First-Person Narrators Write Like Novelists: Tagalong Chronicler Aneirin will compose the Great Song that celebrates the Company's triumph (or tragic demise.) If they’d wanted a novel, apparently Prosper the shieldbearer could have done just as well.

 An Ass-Kicking Christmas: On the third day of Mynyddog's Midwinter feast, the Company and the Teulu fall to squabbling about the Champion's portion of the roast, end up in a mead-fuelled brawl, and nearly burn down Dyn Eidin.

 "Ass" in Ambassador: On being invited to review the Company, the envoy from the kingdom of Dalriada pooh-poohs mere combat readiness and wants a demonstration of discipline like, say, jumping off a cliff on command.
