MEDIA REVIEWS
Praise for'The Lords of the North':
'Beautifully crafted story-telling,complete with splendid set-piece battles and relentless derring-do,so gripping that it rarely stops to catch a breath. It demonstrates once again Cornwell's enormous skill as a historical narrator. He would have graced Alfred's court entertaining the guests with his stories.'Daily Mail
'Cornwell takes the spectres of ninth century history and puts flesh back on their bones. Here is Alfred's world restored - impeccably researched and illuminated with the colour and passion of a master storyteller.'Justin Pollard,author of'Alfred the Great'

'Cornwell's narration is quite masterly and supremely well-researched.'Observer
