Hi,
I just finished reading the Saxon Chronicles, although I tend to think of them as the Uhtred Saga. I would love additional books about Uhtred, Finan or really anything regarding the Anglo-Saxons, Danelaw, Vikings in Britain, etc; however, I recognize you have previously said you’re unsure about that.
My actual question is about things you mention in your historical notes: that the pre-Norman conquest history of England is often overlooked, even in England. I was wondering if you have any idea why that is?
In high school (USA) I had a literature class where we read Beowulf, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and the Canterbury Tales (all translated to Modern English). One of the things I liked about that class was that it was as much about the historical context as the literature itself, which is also why I appreciate that you include a historical note with each novel!
Take care,
Liam
