Reseñas de la Crítica

"Excellent...Cornwell is masterly." (The Times)

"There can surely be no better writer of historical dramas than Bernard Cornwell." (Daily Express)

"Tight plotting, vivid action...great." (Independent)

Always the story! Cornwell tells it like no other!!

Nothing to dislike! I am ready for the next installment! I am invested in Uhtred! You will not be disappointed!

Great

I loved the book and the series as a whole, but what I liked most was the anecdote by the author. Was a touch of class on his part.

Fabulous Storytelling of pre-England

Thoroughly enjoyed The Last Kingdom series by Bernard Cornwell! What a magnificent storyteller! I really didn’t want it to end!

Another great Uhtred story

Any long time reader of Bernard Cornwell's books know the quality of story they will receive from this book. I found this book brought out a lot more emotion in me then previous stories with some tough moments to listen to. Matt Bates does another stellar job reprising the role of Uhtred.

truly a masterpiece

there is no better way to spend the time than to read the Saxon stories

Great Read!

Matt Bates is an excellent narrator that brings energy and life to the story. I love the smaller scale of the conflict, and several plot twists keep things exciting!

A good story

I like the book, and Bates is growing on me as the narrator of the books, especially now that most of the characters have been “replaced” and the pronunciations, names and dialects are more consistent with the previous book.

That said the historical part of the book is where it’s lacking for me. I’m not a historian, but it feels as if there are more deviations form the actual history here than in most of the other books.
That said it is still a great story and well worth it of you have come this far following Uthred.

Continuation of Excellence

First introduced to Bernard Cornwell when I was stuck in a rainstorn in Papua New Guinea. Read the first Sharpes book in a day. Since then I have read every book Cornwell has written - even the romances.
But ......I do think that the Utred series is the best
Love them and always get excited when I see a new one on the horizon.

Thanks Bernard

Attention to detail

Matt Bates is the best narrator. Really cause one to envision the story. Can’t stop listening

How England was made

Very good story overlayed on the history of how England was made. Someone like Uhtred and his followers must have done the work for the Kings at the time. Great 'back-story'.
