Of all the Uthred Books, think i've enjoyed this the least of all. I was very disappointed by how all of Uthred's old enemies were all killed off and with so little emotion. I'm not sure but it has the feeling that there are not to be many more Uthred books left and this was the cleaning house before the finally. Appart from that, there was no finall showdown, merely a brush over and that was a major anti-climax. Also there was some unanswered questions, the whore Mus, why was she trying to stir things up between the two forces, why was she playing her double act, and did her husband know?

Very dissapointing after the year wait.

Meu autor favorito da vida continuando uma das melhores séries que já escreveu (compete com As Crônicas de Artur). Como esse já é o nono livro, não tem muito o que possa dizer que não vá estragar a série. Mas, se ainda não leu essa série, por favor comece! O Bernard Cornwell descreve as melhores batalhas de guerra e os melhores personagens (Uthred e Finan e AEthelflaed <3). Focada na unificação da Inglaterra e na luta contra os vikings, a quantidade de pesquisa e a habilidade do autor são absurdas.

I really enjoyed this book! So much that I ignored all my uni work to spend today reading this💁🏻‍♀️

It was worth it!
