To the north, King Constantine and other Scottish and Irish leaders seek to extend their borders and expand their dominion.Ĭaught in the eye of the storm is Uhtred. To the south, King Æthelstan has unified the three kingdoms of Wessex, Mercia and East Anglia – and now eyes a bigger prize. Beyond the walls of his impregnable fortress, a battle for power rages.

After years fighting to reclaim his rightful home, Uhtred of Bebbanburg has returned to Northumbria.
