Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Slathered in blood and gore, Saxon warlord Uhtred of Bebbanburg hacks his way through the ninth century in the exciting fifth installment to bestseller Cornwell's Saxon Tales series. . . . Vivid descriptions of merciless battlefield slaughter, rape, and destruction are artfully related by a masterful storyteller."--Publishers Weekly

"Cornwell (Agincourt) has been described as a master of historical fiction, but that may be an understatement. Cornwell makes his subject material come alive. Better, his major protagonist is totally believable and human."--Robert Conroy, Library Journal

"Cornwell, a master of martial fiction, makes history come alive with his rousing battlefield scenes."--Margaret Flanagan, Booklist

Reseña del editor:

After breaking with King Alfred of Wessex and joining the Danes and the Vikings in hopes of reclaiming Bebbanburg, warlord Uhtred switches sides again after Alfred's daughter pleads with him to take command of the Mercian army and protect Britain from being conquered. Reprint. A best-selling book. 100,000 first printing.
