Summary
The 11th book in the epic and best-selling series that has gripped millions.
A hero will be forged from this broken land. As seen on Netflix and BBC around the world.
Lord Uhtred of Bebbanburg knows that peace is far from reach. Though he has won the battle for his ancestral home, rebellion looms in Mercia and invading Norsemen appear at every turn. With the country in turmoil, Uhtred comes face to face with King Skoll, a violent Norseman leading an army of úlfheðinn, or wolf warriors, hellbent on seizing a kingdom – and killing any in his path. Surrounded and outnumbered by new enemies, Uhtred must call on all his skill and courage to survive and prevent his beloved Northumbria from falling to the Viking hordes.

Audible got this very wrong
Although a great story, the opening started at Chapter 7 or 8 and the second half of the book played first, with the ending in the middle of the recording. Not what I expect from Audible and to be frank, it ruined a good book and story.
Audible at fault not Bernard Cornwell.

not the best but still pretty damn good
Firstly, Matt Bates. He is perfect for these books. His voices are so varied and distinct. He gets the few women's voices perfectly.
Secondly, the story. England now has a name, but if any books are going to tun you right off Christianity, these are the ones. Why couldnt the Christians accept other religious beliefs. Nowadays Alfred the Great would be in the UN court - and we'd all be Danish and worshipping Thor, but those Danes seemed to know how to have a good time - apart from all the raping. But different times.
Lastly, the writer. You want to know what a battle was really like, then he shows you.
But. Matt Bates brings this to life. Jonathan Keeble reads Sword Song and ruins it.

When is the next one coming??!!!
I have been waiting with bated breath for the latest addition to this outstanding series and in all honesty I could not put this down. As with all the previous instalments this one leaves you wanting more, brilliant again from Bernard Cornwell.

Bought as I cannot wait for the next tv instalment
I bought this as Google tells me the series closely follows the books and I can’t wait another year or two for the show climax. The last Netflix series is to be a film anyway, so 20+ hours of audio is much more satisfying than a few hours of TV. Many of these characters are already dead in the show, but it wasn’t hard to follow along.

Tale of Uhtred continues to engross and enthrall.
To my mind Bernard Cornwall is peerless in Historical fiction, and this series is my favourite. I wonder why I left it so long to read the latest instalment of Uhtred's saga - but as soon as I started reading and listening I knew I would not get much done until I finished. If you have enjoyed the previous books this one will not disappoint - and if you have not, you should, though you would do well to start with the first book not this one which is no. eleven methinks. Bring on no. twelve! The narration is top-notch in the audiobook!
