Review:

The story of Uhtred continues with a foray into London.  During this book it is easy to see the skills of leadership being developed (through both success and failure).  Despite the title, it seems to me that in this book Uhtred starts to find that war is not all its cracked up to be and though he still participates with relish, it seems that the character is slowly growing tired of the mayhem.  He is, however, a fierce Lord who seems to relish in the argument that, "a man is hard to kill."
