New York Times Best Seller
"I gulped it right down. Excellent, as always.... Cornwell brings battles to life like no one else.” (George R.R. Martin, author of Game of Thrones)
The final installment in Bernard Cornwell’s best-selling Saxon Tales series, chronicling the epic story of the making of England - the basis for The Last Kingdom, the hit Netflix series.
The final battle awaits....
The epic conclusion to the globally best-selling historical series.
England is under attack. Chaos reigns. Northumbria, the last kingdom, is threatened by armies from all sides, by land and sea - and only one man stands in their way. Torn between loyalty and sworn oaths, the warrior king Lord Uhtred of Bebbanburg faces his greatest ever battle - and prepares for his ultimate fate....
“Perhaps the greatest writer of historical adventure novels today” (Washington Post), Bernard Cornwell has dazzled and entertained listeners and critics with his prolific string of pause-resisting best sellers. Of all his protagonists, however, none is as beloved as Uhtred of Bebbanburg, and this thrilling historical novel continues the saga of his adventures and the turbulent early years of England.

Story
The tale begins in Dark Age Britain, a land where Arthur has been banished and Merlin has disappeared, where a child-king sits unprotected on the throne, where religion vies with magic for the souls of the people. It is to this desperate land that Arthur returns, a man at once utterly human and truly heroic: a man of honor, loyalty, and amazing valor; a man who loves Guinevere more passionately than he should; a man whose life is at once tragic and triumphant.

Denied citizenship by the Roman Empire, a soldier named Alaric changed history by unleashing a surprise attack on the capital city of an unjust empire. Stigmatized and relegated to the margins of Roman society, the Goths were violent "barbarians" who destroyed "civilization," at least in the conventional story of Rome's collapse. But a slight shift of perspective brings their history, and ours, shockingly alive.

Born in 1150 to a noble Swedish family and coming of age at a monastery under the tutelage of a Cistercian monk and a former Knight Templar, young Arn Magnusson is sent to fulfill his destiny beyond the cloister walls. But the world awaiting him is a place at odds with his monastic ways. And when the murder of a king engulfs Western Götaland into a whirlwind of intrigue and ruthless power plays, headstrong and naive Arn is forced to leave the woman he loves behind and take up arms to battle infidels in the Holy Land.

Unruly Naor clans might raid across the border, but the king himself would never lead his people to war so long as the blade remained in the hands of his enemies. But when squire Elenai’s aging uncovers evidence that the sword in their hall is a forgery, she’s forced to flee Darassus for her life, her only ally the reckless, disillusioned Kyrkenall.

A history of the Crusades. Out of the chaos of Muslim tribal warfare and regional animosity arose a military genius such as Islam had never known: Saladin. Uniting the sultanates of Cairo and Damascus, Saladin created a single powerful state. Luring the crusaders into an ill-considered confrontation, he destroyed their army at the Battle of Hattin in 1187, leaving the few remaining crusaders clinging perilously to a series of towns and forts along the Levantine coast. Into this desperate situation stepped the most formidable warrior of the age, Richard the Lion-Hearted.

Comparing Batman, Superman, and Captain America to Sir Launcelot, Sir Tristram, and Sir Galahad isn't a huge leap of the imagination.

In the south, the Star Towers fell, swallowed by the sea, while the black glaciers descended upon the northern holdfasts, entombing the cities of Min-Ceruth in ice and sorcery. Then from the ancient empire of Menekar, the paladins of Ama came, putting every surviving sorcerer to the sword and cleansing their taint from the land. The pulse of magic slowed, fading like the heartbeat of a dying man. But after a thousand years, it has begun to quicken again.

Epic end to an epic series!
Wow. So many manly tears shed across all books and this is probably one of the most fulfilling and satisfactory endings to any series I have, in this case, listened. So many distinguishable characters. So many vivid scenes. So many great turns and memorable, plot twists that are not over the top and confusing. It was really hard to take a break from listening to do something else.
Also great Matt Bate's performance - from his voice, voice acting to clearly displayed emotions.
It was a great ride! It will be very hard now to find any other historical fiction set in the era to come even close to the quality of Bernad Cornwell.

My favorite series ends on a high
Loved every book in this series. Matt Bates makes the story come alive. The writing is so vivid that I can't imagine how a movie could make the details for realistic. I'll miss the new adventures of friends...but they will always be just a re-listen away.

Great book
Masterfully written and finished leaving a smile on my face. I was a bit apprehensive of a poor ending after spending so much time on this story. Also enjoyed the historical notes following the story. I highly recommend this series of books.

Great ending to an epic saga
Reading all 13 novels have been paid a pleasure. The final installment of The Last Kingdom series does not disappoint.

My favorite of the entire series
I’ve enjoyed all the novels in this series, but this one was particularly captivating and hard to predict. The battle scene was well described and the characters came to life. Well written.
