The Pagan Lord (The Last Kingdom Series, Book 7)

The seventh novel in Bernard Cornwell's number one bestselling series The Warrior Chronicles, on the making of England and the fate of his great hero, Uhtred of Bebbanburg. Alfred the Great is dead and Edward his son reigns as king. Wessex survives but peace cannot hold. The Danes in the north, led by Viking Cnut Longsword, stand ready to invade and will never rest until the emerald crown is theirs. Uhtred, once Alfred's great warrior but now out of favour with the new king, must lead a band of outcasts north to recapture his old family home, that great Northumbrian fortress, Bebbanburg. Loyalties will be divided and men will fall, as every Saxon kingdom is drawn into the bloodiest battle yet with the Danes; a war which will decide the fate of every king, and the entire English nation.

Fate is inexorable. So, as with all the books in the Saxon Stories, this one got me hooked on the first 10 pages. After some quick research to remember how the last book had ended, I was able to fully get into the newest installment of Uthred's saga and couldn't put it down until I finished it. Great battles (Shield Wall!), cunning deceptions and twists of luck told in Cornwell's delicious writing style make this a fine step in Uthred's long way to the North. The only problem is that it ended too soon!
