In this engaging work of social history and culinary exploration, New York Times bestselling author Bernard Cornwell, the most prolific and successful historical novelist in the world today (Wall Street Journal), completes his epic Last Kingdom series with this historical companion book featuring three exclusive short stories and sixty recipes that bring Uhtred's world to life as never before.
My name is Uhtred. I am the son of Uhtred, who was the son of Uhtred and his father was also called Uhtred . . .
The Last Kingdom is one of the most successful historical fiction series of our time. The novels tell the epic story of the birth of England and introduces one of the greatest ever fictional heroes: the iconic Uhtred of Bebbanburg, the Saxon-born, Norse-raised warrior and rebel. In this lively compendium, Bernard Cornwell revisits Uhtred's realm, illuminating elements of the Anglo-Saxon world he couldn't fully explore in his novels.
Uhtred's Feast offers rich background on the books of the Last Kingdom series, presenting a fascinating, detailed view of Anglo-Saxon and Viking life in all its splendor, danger, and beauty. With his narrative flair, Cornwell explores every aspect of this historical period, from the clothes to weapons to food, offering beautifully crafted recipes of early Anglo-Saxon fare, created by renowned UK chef Suzanne Pollak. In addition, he has written three new stories exclusive to this book that reveal the man behind the shield--Uhtred as a young boy, as Alfred's advisor, and as prince.
