REVIEWS OF UHTRED THE BOLD - BOOK 1 IN THE SERIES

The storyline was attention-grabbing all the way through and the ending was so shocking that I can't wait for book two which, I hope will bring revenge for the books' ending. Excellent!
Really good read, good balance with action and story line. Some quite nice character development as well.
It's always interesting to read a new take on historical figures, and the story of Uhtred the Bold as told here is very engaging.

BOOK DESCRIPTION

In 1018 Malcolm, King of Scots, is determined to avenge the crushing defeat inflicted on him by Uhtred of Bebbanburg a dozen years before. Lothian had been a land fought over by the Scots and the Northumbrians for over half a century and now its conquest becomes Malcolm's overriding priority.
It seems that he cannot fail as the Northumbrian leadership is split in twain. Earl Eadwulf is inept and Aldred, Uhtred's son, is the best hope the Northumbrians have of defeating Malcolm. The two are bound by family ties - Aldred is Eadwulf's nephew - but bitter adversaries because Eadwulf murdered Uhtred to become earl.
Can they put aside their hatred for one another to face their joint enemy?
On a hot August day the Scots and the Northumbrians meet on the field of battle just outside Carham. The outcome will decide the border between England and Scotland for all time to come.
