Hello Mr. Cornwell.

I have really enjoyed reading The Last Kingdom series and look forward to reading book 11. I do, however, have a question. I saw a post by another reader about Uhtred’s age during various time periods and it starts to get muddy around book 7/8 because the age of other characters and the timeline of events, etc. occasionally don’t match up. Although that isn’t a big issue for me, I would like to know, how old Uhtred is, in your mind, when he finally takes back Bebbanburg in book 10. When I read books 7-10 and try to keep track, it appears they only cover about seven years of Uhtred’s life (902-909), which would put him in his early 50s, but I have no real idea. Could you clarify? Thanks much.
