Book Log 2017 #18: Warriors of the Storm by Bernard Cornwell
With Alfred gone, his successors work to make their claims on the various parts of England while trying to drive the Danes out. Uhtred finds himself torn as usual, between his oath to Æthelflaed and the needs of his family, the pull of his Danish upbringing against being born a Northumbrian (and his ongoing desire to win back his estate), and between sides in the growing conflict between Mercia and Wessex (ruled by Æthelflaed's brother).
Another entertaining installment in the saga, to the best that I can remember.
