4.9/5 (23212 ratings)

Description:Following Guthrum’s crushing defeat at Edington, Alfred's kingdom is enjoying a rare period of peace. Alfred is ageing. Bouts of his old illness are increasingly frequent, and he prays that his final years will be free of Viking raids, allowing him to concentrate on expanding his kingdom’s boundaries and improving its standard of learning. Scholars are summoned from near and far, amongst them a certain Welsh abbot named Asser.Ongoing peace is no certainty, however, and Alfred continues to improve his defences. An attack on Rochester proves that Wessex is still far from safe… whilst also confirming the effectiveness of Alfred’s newly fortified towns and mobile armies. But would they be enough to withstand another invasion like Ivar and Halfdan’s… or Guthrum’s?The arrival of a huge Norse army puts those defences to the test. Its devious leader does not give up easily and the conflict becomes a trial of will and wits between him and Alfred’s staunch ealdormen, one of whom is Eadwulf’s son, Aethelred.While Aethelred pursues his role as Lord of the Mercians, Eadwulf settles back in Aros with Freydis. Old friendships are rekindled, new ones are formed, and a situation in al-Andalus takes Eadwulf, Bjorn and their comrades on another dangerous quest across the sea.But will this new life be enough to stop Eadwulf missing his children and friends back in Mercia…?We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
