I appreciate that we get to follow the story of an ageing warrior, but the writing is somewhat tired. A new editor is needed, because the text is repetitive, and not Greek epos style; it weakens, not strengthens the text. I also wished there would have been more interaction between Uhtred and his younger, warrior son.

An enjoyable light read. However I don't think this book quite measures up to the earlier books in the series. The primary villain felt underdeveloped and not particularly frightening compared to antagonists earlier in the series, and I never had any feeling that the outcome was in doubt. It felt like a bit of a filler novel to me.
