What a fantastic read. The battle scenes are incredible–I preferred reading Cornwell’s written battle descriptions to those acted in the tv series. Also I kept googling characters and incidents to learn 9th century history.
I love this series and am going to get the entire series in hardback so that I can enjoy them all over again……what a wonderful adventure this has been. Thank you Mr. Cornwell
Brilliant series of books. Loved the TV series, but love the books more. Just bought them all in hardback. Had to check this list to put them in the right order. Looking forward to rereading them all.
