Ebook About The first installment of Bernard Cornwell’s bestselling series chronicling the epic saga of the making of England, “like Game of Thrones, but real” (The Observer, London)—the basis for The Last Kingdom, the hit television series coming to Netflix in Fall 2016.This is the exciting—yet little known—story of the making of England in the 9th and 10th centuries, the years in which King Alfred the Great, his son and grandson defeated the Danish Vikings who had invaded and occupied three of England’s four kingdoms.The story is seen through the eyes of Uhtred, a dispossessed nobleman, who is captured as a child by the Danes and then raised by them so that, by the time the Northmen begin their assault on Wessex (Alfred’s kingdom and the last territory in English hands) Uhtred almost thinks of himself as a Dane. He certainly has no love for Alfred, whom he considers a pious weakling and no match for Viking savagery, yet when Alfred unexpectedly defeats the Danes and the Danes themselves turn on Uhtred, he is finally forced to choose sides. By now he is a young man, in love, trained to fight and ready to take his place in the dreaded shield wall. Above all, though, he wishes to recover his father’s land, the enchanting fort of Bebbanburg by the wild northern sea.This thrilling adventure—based on existing records of Bernard Cornwell’s ancestors—depicts a time when law and order were ripped violently apart by a pagan assault on Christian England, an assault that came very close to destroying England.Book The Last Kingdom (Saxon Tales Book 1) Review :
I bought this because my family and I binged watched the Netflix series The Last Kingdom, which is brilliant, and based on these books. I’ll stick with the show.In the show, the characters are complex. Viewers understand characters’ motivations, even if we don’t agree with them. We see them struggle with decisions, consequences, beliefs and circumstances. That is not the case in the book. The book reads like it was written by a 15-year-old boy. There is little to no character development for anyone. Though it is first person narrative for the main character, the reader isn’t given the main character’s motivations for much of anything. he makes decisions based on the fact that he likes to fight, and he wants to be a warrior (Cue endless battle scenes). He hates Christian conformity, and he likes Dane nonconformity. He makes a huge life decision , and he literally tells the readers “I did it because I was bored.” The entire book is incredibly juvenile and shallow.The Danes kill his brother and his father. If he has any feelings about this, we don’t know what they are. He immediately takes to the Danes, and likes them because Ragnar is funny, and he doesn’t have to read or pray. Then later, (spoiler alert) when Ragnar is killed, he abandons the Danes and agrees to kill them…and we don’t know why. In the show, thankfully, we are given answers for this. We see his internal struggle, and the push and pull of the two different cultures. None of that is in the book. Brida, who in the show is a well rounded character, is as two dimensional as Uhtred.The book is basically glorified battle scenes told from the pov of a shallow, irreverent teenager who just likes killing things. He is devoid of normal feelings, and has little to no human reaction regarding death, violence, war, or grief. He comes off as a bit of a sociopath. It’s incredibly disappointing, especially when compared to the show, which certainly is also about war, but is also about human beings. “The Last Kingdom” is fun and easy-to-read, well-written and brings to life King Alfred’s battles with the Vikings. Much of this book parallels the TV series "The Vikings." I would recommend this book for the young adult crowd who has enjoyed the “Harry Potter” series. For serious readers of historical fiction, however, I would suggest they look elsewhere. The language, style and subject matter are designed for a sixteen year-old male readership; there are no feminine voices in the novel; and the treatment of history is superficial.
