Book Log 2010 #16: The Burning Land by Bernard Cornwell
The latest in the Saxon Tales series featuring Uhtred Ragnarson, the English-born but Dane-raised warrior who, in this book, decided to finally break from Alfred and retake his ancestral home, usurped by an uncle in the first book. His plan is derailed when Alfred's daughter, to whom he pledged his loyalty, asks him to return to fight for the nascent kingdom of Wessex.
Another solid entry in the series, a bit better than the last one I think.

Please, like your husband isn't reading this now.
He would be, if he ever remembered to check your blog.
