Uhtred's feast : inside the world of the Last Kingdom Cover Image

Uhtred's feast : inside the world of the Last Kingdom / Bernard Cornwell with Suzanne Pollak.

Cornwell, Bernard, (author.). Pollak, Suzanne Williamson, 1956- (author.).

Summary:

"The Last Kingdom is one of the most successful historical fiction series of our time, telling the epic story of the birth of England and introducing one of the greatest fictional heroes: the iconic Uhtred of Bebbanburg -- Saxon-born, Norse-raised warrior and rebel. The final Last Kingdom book was published in 2002, but for Bernard Cornwell, the story felt unfinished. There were some Uhtred tales he still wanted to tell, and over the course of writing, he'd become fascinated by elements of the Anglo-Saxon world that couldn't be fully explored in the novels. When he met renowned chef Suzanne Pollak, the idea for Uhtred's Feast was born. Here Cornwell tells those additional Uhtred stories, showing us the man behind the shield -- as a young boy, as Alfred's adviser, and as prince -- while Pollak brings his world to life through beautifully crafted recipes that open a door into the Anglo-Saxon home."-- Dust jacket flap.
