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. To King Alfred he is
the 'lord of battles'. He has gained riches, loyal men and a
beloved wife. But Uhtred is dogged by betrayal and tragedy. The
ailing Alfred presses Uhtred to swear loyalty to his son and heir
Edward, preventing the warrior lord from taking vengeance on those
who stole his home at Bebbanburg. Now Uthred will once again defend
the Christian kingdom - in a battle which could smash the growing
power of the deadly Danes. In so doing he meets a woman more
dangerous than any warlord. A killer, a schemer with a dark power
over men's hearts: Skade. Uhtred of Bebbanburg's mind is as sharp
as his sword. A thorn in the side of the priests and nobles who
shape his fate, this Saxon raised by Vikings is torn between the
life he loves and those he has sworn to serve.
