Story
The brand-new novel in Bernard Cornwell's number one best-selling series on the making of England and the fate of his great hero, Uhtred of Bebbanburg. BBC2's major TV show The Last Kingdom is based on the first two novels in the series. From the day it was stolen from me, I had dreamed of recapturing Bebbanburg. The great fort was built on a rock that was almost an island; it was massive, it could be approached only on land by a single narrow track - and it was mine.

Crown Prince Christophe's brother, and possibly even the king himself, are part of a plot to assassinate him. With no idea who in the palace is truly loyal to who, Ezra must navigate a myriad of potential suspects whilst protecting the heir.

Finding him (in a ramshackle hotel in the French Loire) proves surprisingly easy. Bringing him home proves more difficult than expected - but (as Elsie observes) who would have predicted that, in a hotel full of stamp collectors, the guests would suddenly start murdering each other? One guest is found fatally stabbed, apparently the victim of an intruder.

Story
Josh has done everything right. It's New Year's Eve, and he and girlfriend, Jade, have their own pod on the London Eye. He's got the champagne and the truffles. The ring and the romance. And he's just popped the question. Unfortunately, he gets it wrong. So horribly wrong that by the time he's back on ground he's single, jobless and homeless.
Publisher's Summary
Nathan Makaryk's epic and daring debut rewrites the Robin Hood legend, giving voice to those history never mentioned and challenging who's really a hero and a villain.
No king. No rules.
England, 1191. King Richard is half a world away, fighting for God and his own ambition. Back home, his country languishes, bankrupt and on the verge of anarchy. People with power are running unchecked. People without are growing angry. And in Nottingham, one of the largest shires in England, the sheriff seems intent on doing nothing about it.
As the leaves turn gold in the Sherwood Forest, the lives of six people - Arable, a servant girl with a secret; Robin and William, soldiers running from their pasts; Marion, a noblewoman working for change; Guy of Gisbourne, Nottingham's beleaguered guard captain; and Elena Gamwell, a brash, ambitious thief - become intertwined.
And a strange story begins to spread....

How historical does a historical novel need to be
I really do try not to get too arsey about the history in historical fiction. I read Fantasy novels purporting to be based on mediaeval Britain so hey nonny nonny pedantry isn’t worth the effort when reading for enjoyment. However, I do expect authors to try. Nobody but nobody in 12th century England ever snuggled up to a sack of potatoes which wouldn’t arrive from South America until 400 years later!

Historical and language inaccuracies were too distracting, I got a third of the way through then gave up. Respect to the author, it seemed very appealing, but his editorial team slipped up.
