WELCOME TO UHTRED’S FEAST . . .

Inside the world of The Last Kingdom

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

WELCOME TO UHTRED’S FEAST . . .

Over the course of writing the Last Kingdom series, Bernard Cornwell discovered an increasing fascination for the Anglo-Saxon world: its people, their culture, and their domestic lives beyond the battlefield. And so when he met renowned chef Suzanne Pollak, someone with a passion for Anglo-Saxon cookery, Uhtred’s Feast was born.

A combination of beautifully crafted recipes which incorporate Anglo-Saxon ingredients and cooking techniques, and brand new Uhtred stories by Bernard which show the iconic warrior behind the shield, Uhtred’s Feast opens a door into the ordinary Saxon home – and an extraordinary moment in our history.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Uhtred’s Feast by Bernard Cornwell garners praise for its strong narrative, vigorous action, and compelling characterisation. Critics appreciate Cornwell’s ability to vividly bring history to life, with dynamic battle scenes and deeply researched storytelling. It is lauded as both entertaining and absorbing, maintaining the high standards expected from Cornwell’s previous works.
