by an ill-considered violent act, he heads north to recapture his old home, the fortress of Bebbanburg; though his grand scheme is less bold than foolhardy. It sets Uhtred on the path to play a crucial role in the coming war between Cnut's Danes and Edward's Saxons. For Uhtred the stakes are personal glory and vengeance against those who wronged him, but the fate of Britain itself hangs on the unforeseeable consequences of his actions. Cornwell successfully brings an unjustly obscure era in British history to life, showing how grand events can be shaped by what are essentially petty motivations. Cornwell skillfully illuminates the competing cultures of the 10th Century; the conflict between Dane and Saxon is examined with sympathy and insight—without projecting 21st century values onto cultures now alien to us. In the course of this, he shows how historical novels should be written. (Jan.)
459:) In the year 910. The victory was to the Angles, with an army composed of men from Wessex and Mercia. Two Danish leaders were killed in the battle, Eowils and Healfdan, whose roles were taken by the fictional Danes already part of Uhtred's life. No details of the battle were recorded other than these, so the progress of it is fictional. The River Tame flowed near Tettenhall then. It is true that Mercians travelled to Northumbria in search of Saint Oswald's bones, found them and interred them in Gloucester, minus the skull (claimed by many, perhaps at Durham) and the arm kept at Bebbanburg (Bamburgh). This is not the last battle between the Angles or Saxons and the Danes, but it was a decisive victory.

Aelfric stole the fortress from Uhtred after Uhtred's father was killed by the Danes forty years earlier. His uncle had tried and failed to kill Uhtred; then he had him sold into slavery. They kill some of his uncle's men and succeed in entering through the first gate, masquerading as the dead men, but are detected too soon, trapped and outnumbered. While Uhtred confronts his cousin, also named Uhtred, Finan, Uhtred's second in command, takes captive the uncle, cousin Uhtred's wife Ingulfrid and her 11-year-old son (also named Uhtred). Uhtred kills his uncle and uses the wife and son of his cousin as hostages to leave. They sail to Frisia to rest and refit.
260:), Uhtred awaits Cnut's attack. Before the battle, Uhtred gives Cnut his wife and daughter back, keeping the son. Although Uhtred uses his wiles to kill some of Cnut's men (despite being grossly outnumbered), he is on the verge of defeat when Father Judas, his disowned son, brings Father Pyrlig and a few hundred Welsh warriors to reinforce him. Then Cnut and Uhtred fight. Uhtred injures Cnut, but Cnut is carried away by his men. Uhtred's son slays Cnut's main ally, Sigurd Thorsen. Then King Edward arrives with his men and the Mercians. The Danes break and the Saxons have the victory. Word is that Aethelred was badly wounded, but still lives. Cnut comes back for a one-on-one fight with Uhtred.

The big set pieces are more impressive than the realistically meandering odyssey that threads them together. The most consistent motif is Uhtred’s undying and principled hostility to “the nailed god” of Christianity and the threat he represents to the warrior code Uhtred so perfectly embodies." 232:
Uhtred figures out that Cnut is readying for war, after ten years of relative peace. Cnut's wife and children had not been kidnapped; it was part of Cnut's ruse to persuade Aethelred, Aethelflaed’s despised husband, into believing that Cnut would be preoccupied with an enemy, encouraging Aethelred to
