Afternoon Bernard,

I’m currently reading my way through the Last Kingdom (Warrior Chronicles) series. I wondered about your choice of writing in first person- from the point of view of Uhtred. Why did you choose this method, and not say, in an omniscient way which would have given an insight into Alfred and other characters from their point of view. It works brilliantly by the way but I wondered if you felt like you became limited in some ways? Thoroughly enjoying them, being from Durham.
