Of all his protagonists, however, none is as beloved as Uhtred of Bebbanburg.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd while Uhtred might have regained his family's fortress, it seems that a peaceful life is not to be - as he is under threat from both an old enemy and a new foe. The old enemy comes from Wessex where a dynastic struggle will determine who will be the next king. And the new foe is Sköll, a Norseman, whose ambition is to be King of Northumbria and who leads a frightening army of wolf-warriors, men who fight half-crazed in the belief that they are indeed wolves. Uhtred, believing he is cursed, must fend off one enemy while he tries to destroy the other. In this new chapter of the Saxon Tales series--a rousing adventure of courage, treachery, duty, devotion, majesty, love and battle, as seen through the eyes of a warrior straddling two worlds--Uhtred returns to fight once again for the destiny of England. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCornwell, Bernard:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003eBERNARD CORNWELL is the author of the acclaimed \u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e bestselling Saxon Tales series, which includes \u003cem\u003eThe Last Kingdom, The Pale Horseman, Lords of the North, Sword Song, The Burning Land, Death of Kings, The Pagan Lord\u003c\/em\u003e, and, most recently, \u003cem\u003eThe Empty Throne \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003eWarriors of the Storm\u003c\/em\u003e, and which serves as the basis for the hit television series \u003cem\u003eThe Last Kingdom\u003c\/em\u003e.
