This is a fan website dedicated to the thirteen-volume historical novel written by Bernard Cornwell “The Last Kingdom” formerly called as Saxon Stories, and also known as Saxon Chronicles, and Saxon Tales.
We follow the events that lead to the creation of England from the point of view of the fictional character Uhtred of Bebbanburg, a Saxon lord raised by Danes.
In addition to the expected historical events, Bernard Cornwell has introduced brilliantly a very detailed view of middle ages society, where we get to see aspects of Christianism and paganism, social organization, and above all the preparation, and war events. The descriptions of shield walls are unique and make it impossible to stop reading.
