Uhtred's Feast: Inside the World of the Last Kingdom
by Bernard Cornwell
I've only read book 1 of The Saxon Stories/Last Kingdom Series but since that series is based on historical events, I wasn't too sensitive about being spoiled by jumping straight into book 13.5.
Uhtred's Feast contains 3 short stories set at very different times in Uhtred’s life, which supplement the stories told in the main series. Despite having only read book 1, I don't feel like these short stories really gave much away. The rest of the book includes a number of Anglo-Saxon inspired recipes, with extra historical background.
Uhtred's Feast has left me really excited to carry on with the main series. I’m due to start book 2 of the Last Kingdom series and I can't wait to get back to it. If you love historical fiction and/or Vikings, this is a series to pick up. Uhtred is a great character, and I love watching him develop relationships as the series progresses.
Thank you so much to Harper Collins for sending me a beautiful hardback copy in exchange for a review.
