An outstanding book, this is the fifth entry of Bernard Cornwell viking saga which includes the invasion to England by the great heathen army on the first books. The writing is as good as always, the book itself is good, it has a good build and quality, and the content, if you have been reading the other books, is amazing. You just can't stop reading it, and following Uhtred throughout his life is an epic tale to remember.
Another outstanding historical fiction by Bernard Cornwell. His painstaking research brings to life the people and culture of a lost time. Extremely well written and very enjoyable to read. Once again, a very smooth transition from previous books in the series to this one. It did not leave me feeling there were unfilled gaps in the time frame. I highly recommend this book to all Cornwell fans, and to those who have not discovered Bernard Cornwell yet, you are missing out on one of the great historical fiction writers ever. Well Done!
I enjoy Mr Cornwells books greatly, I have all of them in hardback. My favorite series is of course the Saxon (Warrior) Chronicles. If you like the Television series Vikings you will love these books!
