Book Reviews of Lords of the North: A Novel (Saxon Chronicles #3)
Book Review: A Better Berserker!
Summary: 4 Stars
By Odin's beard and then go out and buy LORDS OF THE NORTH. Cornwell is back with Uhtred, England's semi berserker and a contination of the Saxon series (this is book# 3)that will keep you smiling like a madman (or woman too, for that matter!) with high adventure and his usual swath of 9th century English history.
This isn't Hollywood's THE VIKINGS but a better, more factual portrayal of those loveable little Norse rascals who brought chaos and havoc to the English, Scots, Irish and...well, dang near everybody else they came in contact with. But at least for those of us who are descendants of the Vikings we like to believe that in the process they improved the local DNA or say, their victim's appreacition for prayer.
Thanks to Cornwell we also get to see how the English may have shown us the proverbial door as a result. Good storyline, good battle scenes, and Good Lord, does this guy know how to keep us turning the page!
