About The Pagan Lord by Bernard Cornwell

Set in the years after King Alfred’s death, The Pagan Lord portrays a Britain divided between Danish rule in the north and Saxon power in the south. Bernard Cornwell’s historical novel follows Uhtred, a warrior who has fallen out of favour with the new regime and is banished from his lands.

With a small band of loyal men, Uhtred sets out to reclaim his ancestral home of Bebbanburg as tensions escalate into a war that may determine whether England or Daneland prevails. Readers interested in Uhtred’s story, early medieval Britain, and historical fiction shaped by the struggle between Saxon and Danish kingdoms may find it compelling.
