Well? Great book, by the way.

Yeah. Ah, so you have read it.
I picked up the book about 2 weeks ago and finished the entire series within 2 days...
Loved em.

Yeah they are fantastic books especially The Last Kingdom. However, I found the most currently published book to be lacking in story development that he did so effortlessly in the other books. Have you guys read the Warlord Trilogy or the Grail Quest series?

Where are you from?
I've read all three of those series and thought the Saxon Stories have been the best among the three.
I haven't read his Sharpe books, and don't know that I will. I am eargerly awaiting Azincourt to come out in the USSA.
As a teenager, I was taken to various houses and flats above takeaways in the north of England, to be beaten, tortured and raped over 100 times. I was called a “white slag” and “white ****” as they beat me.

I know it may be out of place to talk about comics when you`re talking about proper literature, but have you read the comic "Vinland Saga"? It`s pretty good, even though I`m not a fan of manga.
I've read the Warlord chronicles...Horribly depressing, but quite good.

Yeah, very symbolic and emotionally moving.
So have you read his 'Stonehenge'? I'm about 3/4 of the way through it at the moment.
Also, do you guys think I should pick up the Grail Quest series?

I wasn't deeply impressed by the Grail Quest series on my first read but enjoyed it better the second time around. The Saxon Chronicles are phenomenal and I absolutely loved the Warlord series. Extremely moving, I found myself attached to the characters more than any other book I've read in a very long time. I'm definitely looking forward to Azincourt. It looks like this one is really going to be gritty.

Reading 'The Last Kingdom' at the moment, as I'm studying Anglo-Saxon England at uni! I loved 'The Warlord Chronicles', great reworking of the Arthur legend!

Yeah! Totally. Though, that bastard Merthig (I think? Gwent's king, anyway) really pissed me off. Worst villain ever, even though he wasn't technically evil!
