At the close of this story Harffy gives thanks and acknowledgments to many including the moderator of a Bernard Cornwell fan club. While the thanks is no doubt deserved, it is a strong indicator of just whom will enjoy this novel and the coming series. If you have enjoyed Cornwell's stories of the adventures of Uhtred of Bebbanburg then there is little chance that you wouldn't also enjoy Harffy's story here. Wolf of Wessex is set in a similar period, though precedes the time of Alfred of Wessex, and is written with a similar ease, pacing, and sense of Anglo Saxons called to adventure.
Part Logan, part True Grit, mixed with a large dash of Druss the Legend.
Masterful.
This book was fantastic! Fast paced, full of twist and turns and great characters that you loved and really rooted for! Dunstan was brilliant, a mix between Uhtred of Bebbenburg and Perrin from the wheel of time! I cant recommend this book enough.
3.5 ⭐️
A quick and enjoyable historical fiction book about an old warrior that saves a girl from Norseman and goes on seek revenge in her honor. The most enjoyable part was the historical context at the very end. Although I wasn't wowed by this book it was good enough for me to try more by Harffy
