Summary
England is in turmoil as Vikings and Saxons battle for territory. Rumours build about the fatal sickness of the King, and the country awaits an heir.
A violent clash at sea forces the warrior lord Uhtred to lead his men from his Northumbrian fortress to London and plunge into the eye of the storm. For two kings claim the empty throne and a new kingdom cannot be born without bloodshed.
Uhtred’s sword will leave one king dead and the other victorious. But sometimes it is hard to know the will of the gods....

Cliff hangers !
Loved the suspenses in this book. The barley field, the chase at sea and into the tidal river, the last battle scene the huge scary warrior dude 😂

Aged but victorious
A vulnerable Uhtred is humbled but manages through sheer bloody mindedness to triumph once more.

Good performance by Matt Bates, bad, boring story.
Wish Bernard would finish this series, it's starting to drag. Suppose he needs to milk the udder until the tweets run dry.

As good as ever
Another great book in the Last Kingdom series. Only after listening to it, had I realized how I had missed listening to the adventures of Uhtred! Hard to stop listening. All the best qualities of the series are present in this latest book.
Highly recommended.
