Book Log 2014 #11: The Pagan Lord by Bernard Cornwell

The continuing saga of the English born and Danish raised Uhtred sees him leading his own army of mercenaries and planning to retake his ancestral home from the uncle who took it. But the Danes, who have been quiet since the death of Alfred, seem to be plotting something. Not in favor with the new English king, Uhtred once again has to choose between the land of his birth and the land where he was raised.

A very solid outing in the series, good battle sequences and good to finally have Bebbanburg play more of a role.
