About this product

Product Information

The fifth installment of Bernard Cornwell's bestselling Saxon Tales chronicling the epic saga of the making of England, "like Game of Thrones, but real" (The Observer, London)--the basis for The Last Kingdom, the hit BBC America television series. At the end of the ninth century, King Alfred of Wessex is in ill health; his heir, an untested youth. His enemy, the Danes, having failed to conquer Wessex, now see their chance for victory. Led by the sword of savage warrior Harald Bloodhair, the Viking hordes attack. But Uhtred, Alfred's reluctant warlord, proves his worth, outwitting Harald and handing the Vikings one of their greatest defeats. For Uhtred, the sweetness of victory is soon overshadowed by tragedy. Breaking with Alfred, he joins the Vikings, swearing never again to serve the Saxon king. Instead, he will reclaim his ancestral fortress on the Northumbrian coast. Allied with his old friend Ragnar-and his old foe Haesten-he aims to invade and conquer Wessex itself. But fate has different plans . . . In The Burning Land, Bernard Cornwell, "the reigning king of historical fiction" (USA Today), delivers a rousing saga of Anglo-Saxon England-an irresistible new chapter in his thrilling Saxon Tales, the epic story of the birth of England and the legendary king who made it possible.

Slathered in blood and gore, Saxon warlord Uhtred of Bebbanburg hacks his way through the ninth century in the exciting fifth installment to bestseller Cornwell's Saxon Tales series. . . . Vivid descriptions of merciless battlefield slaughter, rape, and destruction are artfully related by a masterful storyteller., Cornwell, a Master of Martial Fiction, Makes History Come Alive with His Rousing Battlefield Scenes., "Cornwell, a master of martial fiction, makes history come alive with his rousing battlefield scenes." -- Margaret Flanagan, Booklist "Cornwell (Agincourt) has been described as a master of historical fiction, but that may be an understatement. Cornwell makes his subject material come alive. Better, his major protagonist is totally believable and human." -- Robert Conroy, Library Journal "Slathered in blood and gore, Saxon warlord Uhtred of Bebbanburg hacks his way through the ninth century in the exciting fifth installment to bestseller Cornwell's Saxon Tales series. . . .

    Excellent product, the physycal and the content.

    An outstanding book, this is the fifth entry of Bernard Cornwell viking saga which includes the invasion to England by the great heathen army on the first books. The writing is as good as always, the book itself is good, it has a good build and quality, and the content, if you have been reading the other books, is amazing. You just can't stop reading it, and following Uhtred throughout his life is an epic tale to remember.

    The Burning Land by Bernard Cornwell

    Another outstanding historical fiction by Bernard Cornwell. His painstaking research brings to life the people and culture of a lost time. Extremely well written and very enjoyable to read. Once again, a very smooth transition from previous books in the series to this one. It did not leave me feeling there were unfilled gaps in the time frame. I highly recommend this book to all Cornwell fans, and to those who have not discovered Bernard Cornwell yet, you are missing out on one of the great historical fiction writers ever. Well Done!

    I enjoy Mr Cornwells books greatly, I have all of them in hardback. My favorite series is of course the Saxon (Warrior) Chronicles. If you like the Television series Vikings you will love these books!
