Reviews with the most likes.
The adventures of Uthred, Bernard Cornwell's Saxon hero, continue in the fifth book of the Saxon series. This story is anchored around two crucial battles between the Saxons and Danes – the Battle of Farnham and the decisive Battle of Benfleet (both around 894 AD). Between them Uthred breaks an oath, looses love, finds love, takes down a pirate, meets a Danish warrior witch, and has lots of adventures. Good stuff. England in its infancy is now taking shape in Cornwell's series.
