朋友推薦的書:前半段實在太冗長,看不下去。。。。。但是看評論好像後半段好起來瞭,是不是應該再堅持一下呢。

評分還是這種小說容易讀,正在讀Ulysses的進度緩慢,中間拿起此書,一口氣這個係列的三本都讀完瞭,又在圖書館預訂瞭餘下的幾本。

評分大不列顛的紳士們就喜歡把什麼都歸結為destiny是吧!一秒想到瞭梅林傳奇。
From Bernard Cornwell, the <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author whom the <em>Washington Post</em> calls "perhaps the greatest writer of historical adventure novels today," comes a saga of blood, rage, fidelity, and betrayal that brings to center stage King Alfred the Great, one of the most crucial (but oft-forgotten) figures in English history. It is King Alfred and his heirs who, in the ninth and tenth centuries, with their backs against the wall, fought to secure the survival of the last outpost of Anglo-Saxon culture by battling the ferocious Vikings, whose invading warriors had already captured and occupied three of England's four kingdoms.</p>
Bernard Cornwell's epic novel opens in <small>A.D.</small> 866. Uhtred, a boy of ten and the son of a nobleman, is captured in the same battle that leaves his father dead. His captor is the Earl Ragnar, a Danish chieftain, who raises the boy as his own, teaching him the Viking ways of war. As a young man expected to take part in raids and bloody massacres against the English, he grapples with divided loyalties -- between Ragnar, the warrior he loves like a father, and Alfred, whose piety and introspection leave him cold. It takes a terrible slaughter and the unexpected joys of marriage for Uhtred to discover his true allegiance -- and to rise to his greatest challenge.</p>
In Uhtred, Cornwell has created perhaps his richest and most complex protagonist, and through him, he has magnificently evoked an era steeped in dramatic pageantry and historical significance. For if King Alfred fails to defend his last kingdom, England will be overrun, and the entire course of history will change.</p>
