Difficult to put it down…

This book was the first to capture me deadlocked into reading for hours!! The writing is done well and I hope stays that way throughout the rest of the series!!

Once you start, you just can’t stop. Uhtred of Bebbanburg is a complicated character, you can’t predict his fate, and reading this series is like riding a rollercoaster. Do yourself a favor and buckle up.

The third volume equals the first and surpasses the second. The history told is well worth the read. The plot is action packed and characters are full of life.

The old English names are hard to read but add authenticity. When I read I feel like I am alongside uhltred . Hard to believe that the Church was so controlling then. This is a tremendous series

As thrilling as the first two novels in this series.

Follows the first two books well. Leaves room for more books and you feel hanging at the end.
