Year 910AD and England had been peaceful for 10 years, but the Danes and the Saxons are both plotting. Number 7 of 13 books in The Last Kingdom Series. This is my first book of the series and first Bernard Cornwell book. I loved it and Uhtred as a character. I am going to start at the beginning of the series. So happy to have found a new series. This book never stopped. The pace was tight and moved rapidly. The details. Astonishing. 4.5/5

Another solid book in the series. Although it basically follows the same pattern as the previous books, it's always nice to return to Uhtred's world.
