This is a very interesting story about a brutal period of English history. The discussions between pagan characters and devout Christians seemed realistic. As in many adventure stories, the main character, Uhtred, has room to grow. Not all of his actions are admirable in this story, but he does have a number of qualities which endear the reader.
