The Last Kingdom

is it out?

Yeah

ok christcuck

I'm pretty sure the danelaw was occupied by the norsemen for a couple hundred years

It’s a vehicle for british and christian bullshit.

All of Cornwells historical fiction is like
Broody and surly MC who finds that hes inexplicably amazing at combat and tactics, always finds himself at the right time right place.
Sharpe, Starbuck, Uthred. Basically change the character and stories still work the same.
In Sharpe, Sharpe basically runs around single handedly capturing eagles turning tides of battles, in the Starbuck chronicles, Starbuck again basically runs around battlefields, managing to convince regiments to hold their place and is generally an amazing officer despite evidence to the contrary

I really wanted to like this show but he's such a dogshit protagonist and it completely ruins the storytelling. It makes me appreciate the last GOT seasons more, they may be flawed or even infuriating at times but at least I never struggled to remain interested.

The christians may have won some battles (mainly by massacring the norsemen such as during the brice day massacre) but lost the war ultimately

It's creative liberty when the battles portrayed in the show reflect this fact of history and has nothing to do with any imaginary "anti-christian" agenda like OP is claiming

It's not so much that he's a pagan but more he's a gary stu.

That said Assandun and several other battles are given entirely as Alfred's victories.

T. Read the books

And I'm pretty sure you don't know what you're talking about

865 - fall of York to Vikings
927 - Athelstan completed Danelaw reconquest with fall of York

Vikings only won initially due to shock tactics and exploiting a civil war in Northumbria.

horrible show, don't understand how anyone liked it

Beocca ;_;

>Danelaw can describe the set of legal terms and definitions created in the treaties between the King of Wessex, Alfred the Great, and the Danish warlord, Guthrum, written following Guthrum's defeat at the Battle of Edington in 878.
>As a term of surrender, King Alfred demanded that Guthrum be baptised a Christian; King Alfred served as his godfather.[17]

post the pretty grill with the stupid name already

Bernard Cornwell really does not like Christians.
Read the warlord chronicles. He wants the viewers to root for the smug celtic pagans who commit human sacrifice and shows arthur literally looting a monastery as a noble and smart thing.

Reading the Sharpe books and in one Sharpe's Trafalgar he starts having an affair with some lords wife, presented as a good thing. When the guys secretary finds out and blackmails Sharpe he lures him to the bottom of the ship breaks both his arms and snaps his neck. This is presented as a good thing because he's protecting the last. I'm not kidding. It's bizarrely evil and then just not discussed again.

Cornwall books are entertaining but all his characters are interchangeable borderline gary stus. Similar plots too.
