The fifth novel in Bernard Cornwell’s epic and bestselling series on the making of England and the fate of his great hero, Uhtred of Bebbanburg.
BBC2’s major Autumn 2015 TV show THE LAST KINGDOM is based on the first two books in the series.
In the last years of the ninth century, King Alfred of Wessex is in failing health, and his heir is an untested youth. The Danes, who have failed so many times to conquer Wessex, smell opportunity…
First comes Harald Bloodhair, a savage warrior leading a Viking horde, who is encouraged to cruelty by his woman, Skade. But Alfred still has the services of Uhtred, his unwilling warlord, who leads Harald into a trap and, at Farnham in Surrey, inflicts one of the greatest defeats the Vikings were ever to suffer.
This novel, the fifth in the magnificent series of England's history tells of the final assaults on Alfred's Wessex, that Wessex survived to become England is because men like Uhtred defeated an enemy feared throughout Christendom.

Varför i hela friden finns inte hela serien inläst av Jonathan Keeble. Matt bates är värdelös i jämförelse!

Instämmer med tidigare omdömen. Keeble har sjuk inlevelse som passar bra ihop med min fantasi av dessa berättelser.

Som alltid är hans böcker underhållande och förvånansvärt väl sammanstämmande med historiska händelser. Men att byta inläsare mitt i produktionen av en serie ljudböcker är ett misstag. Har inget emot någon av inläsarna, det är bytet som är problemet.
