A great story following on from the adventures of the main character Uhtred of Bebbanburg who is now a few years older but still as sharp as ever. This book follows on relatively soon after the main events of the previous book and there are many characters from previous books, however there is no need to read all the previous stories in the saga to enjoy this one. With brand new enemies and challenges and an excellent ability to quickly get the reader up to speed on previous events and characters, Bernard Cornwall has created a very entertaining and exciting story that can be read as a stand alone book.

Great story telling. Cornwell takes the bones of Historical dates and characters you learned snippets about at school, and transports you back to be alongside a pivotal character who lived through events which 'could have' occurred at that moment of time. Remember to get the most enjoyment, you'll need to buy the complete set of books relevant to that character/series, and read the books in timeline order.

There is no author like Bernard Cornwell. His Last Kingdom series is second to none,

Utred fights on in this tale of unsure loyalties and untold enemies. Cornwell brings a brilliant feeling to the story with his knowledge of historic history. You feel as if you are standing on the side lines watching all the action take place. Can`t wait for the next story to follow on.

Great writing as always. However, is it my imagination or are the books getting a bit formulaic? However, I still thought it was a great read, even though I could foresee some of what was going to happen.
