Sword Song

The fourth in the bestselling Alfred series from number one historical novelist; Bernard Cornwell. The year is 885; and England is at peace; divided between the Danish kingdom to the north and Alfred's kingdom of Wessex in the south. But trouble stirs; a dead man has risen and new Vikings have arrived to occupy London. It is a dangerous time; and it falls to Uhtred; half Saxon; half Dane; a man feared and respected the length and breadth of Britain; to expel the Viking raiders and take control of London for Alfred. His uncertain loyalties must now decide England's future. A gripping tale of love; rivalry and violence; Sword Song tells the story of England's making.
