I’ve read and re read all 10 (so far) of the last kingdom books and I’m struggling to work out where Osferth is. The Last I read he was looking after Uhtred’s cousins wife and child. But nothing that I can see is mentioned in the following books other than Uhtred heard she and the boy died. I was mildly disappointed that he didn’t help retake Bebbanburg in book 10. Can you shed any light on the situation?
