Book Log 2017 #27: The Flame Bearer by Bernard Cornwell
This installment in the saga of Uhtred of Bebbanberg and the early history of England sees a fragile peace broken when Scots lay claim to northern lands while West Saxons invade Northumbria, which also throws a wrench into Uhtred's plan to finally retake the ancestral home that was stolen from him. Can England's greatest warrior restore the peace and his rightful control over Bebbanberg?
I don't recall anything specifically good or bad about the book, but do recall thinking the book moved the overall story along a little better than the previous couple of books.
