Nyní však západosaské království Wessex čelí novému přílivu krvelačných Dánů, který zažene krále Alfreda a jeho věrné až do nepřístupných bažin, kde jsou nuceni skrývat se před nepřáteli jako nějací psanci.Zbožný panovník usilující o sjednocení Anglie, jemuž historie dala přídomek Veliký, se však nevzdává a pomalu shromažďuje vojsko, s nímž chce pohanské vetřelce vyhnat ze své země. Uhtred hraje v jeho plánech klíčovou roli, jejich vztah ovšem není zrovna ideální – horkokrevný mladý válečník totiž chová více sympatií k divokým Seveřanům než ke svému králi, který spíše než středověkého rytíře připomíná křesťanského světce. Jemu však přísahal věrnost a také by jednou rád získal zpět své panství, k čemuž by mu mohl dopomoci právě Alfred.

Srdnatý mladík však nezapomíná na křivdy, které mu kdysi způsobil zlovolný strýc Ælfric, a míří proto do Northumbrie, aby se pomstil za útrapy v útlém dětství.

An extraordinary and dramatic depiction of the legendary battle of Agincourt from the number one historical novelistAzincourt, fought on October 25th 1415, St Crispin''s Day, is one of England’s best-known battles, in part through the brilliant depiction of it in Shakespeare''s Henry V, in part because it was a brilliant and unexpected English victory and in part because it was the first battle won by the use of the longbow – a weapon developed by the English which enabled them to dominate the European battlefields for the rest of the century.Bernard Cornwell’s Azincourt is a vivid, breathtaking and meticulously well-researched account of this momentous battle and its aftermath. From the varying viewpoints of nobles, peasants, archers, and horsemen, Azincourt skilfully brings to life the hours of relentless fighting, the desperation of an army crippled by disease and the exceptional bravery of the English soldiers.

Hudební CD - V mnoha ohledech prožili skladatelé Nicolo Paganini a Franz Schubert zcela odlišné životy a odlišné bylo také jejich přijetí publikem. Zatímco Paganini se dočkal závratných úspěchů už za svého života, Schubertovi se dostalo skutečného ocenění až dlouho po jeho smrti. V mnoha ohledech prožili skladatelé Nicolo Paganini a Franz Schubert zcela odlišné životy a odlišné bylo také jejich přijetí publikem.

Právě toto pojítko si vzala za své norská houslistka Vilde Frangová a rozhodla se ukázat oba autory poněkud obrácenou optikou, než je obvyklé, tedy Schuberta skrze jeho lyrickou virtuozitu a Paganiniho prostřednictvím jeho (mnohdy nečekané) citovosti a...
