This eighth entry in New York Times bestselling author Bernard Cornwell's epic Saxon Tales series brings to life the harrowing and turbulent tale of a nation torn apart by sectarian and religious strife, a political struggle dominated by dynastic rivalries, and the remarkable strength that elevates some characters above their time.

My name is Uhtred. I am the son of Uhtred, who was the son of Uhtred . . .

Britain, early tenth century AD: a time of change.  There are new raids by the Vikings from Ireland, and turmoil among the Saxons over the leadership of Mercia.  A younger generation is taking over.

Æthelred, the ruler of Mercia, is dying, leaving no legitimate heir.  The West Saxons want their king, but Uhtred has long supported Athelflaed, sister to King Edward of Wessex and widow of Aethelred.  Widely loved and respected, Athelflaed has all the makings of a leader - but could Saxon warriors ever accept a woman as their ruler?  The stage is set for rivals to fight for the empty throne.

Uhtred is still suffering from the wounds he received in battle.  To recover his strength he needs to find the sword that caused the injury, but lost amid the battles blood and mud, how could it be traced and who among the Vikings or Saxons might be holding it?

In the end it is one champion, one hero, who will destroy the new Viking threat to Mercia and ultimately decide the fate of England.
