Covering novels seven through twelve, this set follows Uhtred through fresh betrayals, shifting alliances, and brutal battles as Alfred's heirs edge closer to a unified England. Ideal for readers already invested in Uhtred's journey, or newcomers wanting to binge a meaty chunk of the saga in one go, this paperback set delivers non-stop Dark Age drama. About the Books Opening with The Pagan Lord, an outcast Uhtred is forced back into the fray to defend his name and his claim on Bebbanburg. The Empty Throne finds Mercia's leadership vacant and rival factions circling, while Warriors of the Storm sees a fragile peace crumble as Vikings and ambitious nobles test Wessex's borders. In The Flame Bearer, Uhtred finally turns to reclaiming his ancestral fortress from the cousin who stole it decades earlier. War of the Wolf pits him against rebellion in Mercia and fresh Norse invasions, while Sword of Kings closes the run with a savage sea battle dragging Uhtred to London, where rival kings vie for a vacant throne. Across all six novels, Cornwell combines meticulously researched Dark Age history with pacy, visceral action and a flawed, compelling hero — a warrior torn between his Saxon upbringing and Viking instincts. Fans of the TV adaptation will recognise every key event, while newcomers get a gripping entry point into one of the finest historical sagas in print.
