I just finished reading Death of Kings and I really enjoyed it. I’m wondering will Uhtred regain Bebbanburgh when Athelstan marches north to the Battle of Brunanburgh? If so, Uhtred will be very old. Of course He does live a very long time. Reading your book, has sparked my interest in Athelstan. I think he would be a great subject for historical fiction but I can find very little about him. He was a great warrior King, and yet chose not to produce and heir in favor of a younger brother. I don’t see how a novelist could resist putting his spin on that.
