The Last Kingdom by Bernard Cornwell

The Last Kingdom by Bernard Cornwell

The fate of the kingdom depended on a young warrior caught between two worlds, in Bernard Cornwell’s historical saga that inspired The Last Kingdom on Netflix.

The first book in Bernard Cornwell’s acclaimed New York Times bestselling Saxon Tales series, a captivating historical saga “like Game of Thrones, but real” (The Observer, London) – the basis for the hit Netflix series The Last Kingdom.

In the mid-ninth century, the fierce Danish invaders swept onto British shores, mercilessly conquering kingdom after kingdom. Only one realm remained standing against the ruthless onslaught. And in that last, precarious moment, the fate of all England – indeed, the course of history itself – rested upon the shoulders of one man, one king.

From the renowned storyteller Bernard Cornwell comes a rousing epic of courage, treachery, duty, devotion, majesty, love, and the fury of battle, seen through the eyes of a young warrior who straddled two worlds.
