Hi Bernard, I have just finished SWORD SONG, and I just wanted to tell what a cracking good read it was too. Uhtred is such a hero, and very nearly King Uhtred of Mercia!Was there a warrior like Uhtred who fought Alfred’s battles for him in real life?Keep writing Bernard, I am looking forward already for the next installment, well done. Many Regards, Peter Carragher(EAST ANGLIAN)
