Description

Fletcher writes convincingly and with distinction; as a storyteller, he carries his theme of murder and revenge at a cracking pace - Iain Finlayson, The TimesIn March 1016 Earl Uhtred of Northumbria was ambushed and brutally murdered by a rival magnate - with the full collusion of England's ruthless new ruler, King Canute - setting in motion a sixty-year cycle of violence, treachery, slaughter and revenge. In this gripping work of historical detection, Richard Fletcher sheds new light on the fledgling Anglo-Saxon world, and on figures such as Ethelred the Unready, Eric Bloodaxe and William the Conqueror, bringing one of the most bloodthirsty periods of English history to life.A beautifully written gem, showing how the pattern of great events may be read in lesser ones, how brutal and sophisticated were the lives of our forebears - Alan Judd, Sunday TelegraphEnthralling... confirms the historical perception of this dark millennial century as a succession of pitched battles between villainous gangs hell-bent on plunder... a compelling work of forensic historical reconstruction - Mathilda Lisle, ObserverIrresistible... Fletcher has taken the quarrel as a framework and clothed it with a thorough and detailed examination of England in the tenth and eleventh centuries - Fiona Hook, Independent on Sunday
