Después de cinco meses de haberme decidido ver la serie de El Ultimo Reino, he llegado al final del camino de Uhtred de Bebbanburg y lamentablemente, no hay vuelta atrás por mucho que lo deseé a morir. https://entretenimientocasual.blogspot.com
La épica travesía de Uhtred of Bebbanburg llega a su fin en esta quinta y conclusiva temporada.

The Last Kingdom is one of the most successful historical fiction series of our time. The novels tell the epic story of the birth of England and introduces one of the greatest ever fictional heroes: the iconic Uhtred of Bebbanburg, the Saxon-born, Norse-raised warrior and rebel. In his new book, Uhtred's Feast: Inside the World of The Last Kingdom, Cornwell revisits Uhtred's realm, exploring every aspect of this historical period, from the clothes, to weapons, to food, offering beautifully crafted recipes of early Anglo-Saxon fare, created by renowned chef Suzanne Pollak.

Nous connaissons Vikings, mais la mythologie nordique est présente dans d'autres œuvres. Voici trois séries pour vous plonger dans les légendes du Nord. Ragnarök La ville fictive norvégienne d'Edda est touchée par la pollution industrielle et le réchauffement climatique. Un adolescent, Magne (David Stakston), réincarnation de Thor, et son frère Laurits (Jonas Strand Gravli), réincarnation de Loki combattant une légende ancestrale. Arrivée cet été sur Netflix, la saison 3 de Ragnarök continue de fasciner en adaptant la mythologie autour de Thor et Loki sous la forme d'un teen show. La saison 3 de six épisodes est disponible avec les deux précédentes saisons. https://youtu.be/sYzsPT5MYQk?si=Wp3fOlXtP9yITqVn The Last Kingdom Au IXe siècle, l'Angleterre, séparée en de nombreux royaumes, est envahie par les Vikings.

We truly cannot believe we have reached the end of the final season of The Last Kingdom! What an amazing ride it has been to watch Uhtred, the gangly kid from Bebbanburg grow and eventually end up back where he truly belongs! The final push of these three episodes (8,9,10) are really all about getting back to Bebbanburg and there are some harrowing moments, some old friends whose faces we've missed, some fan service in the final hours. As we came to a close on the final episode, we really couldn't be happier with how it ended. Of course we'd always love to see more of the quiet moments between characters, but this gave us the satisfying end we've all wanted for Uhtred since back in Season 1, Episode 1. We also talk about Marvel's latest endeavor with the release of the She-Hulk trailer, as well as the BIG NEWS that Season 3 of Bridgerton has officially been announced as Colin and Penelope's season - we talk about what we're hoping happens and what might happen for future seasons.

Sit back while we teach you Jamaican, how Cartoon Network is still going strong and The Last Kingdom detailing Uthred of Bebbanburg. There is a 'spoiler alert'. You have been warned, but I know you are super duper curious!!!!!! Jamaicans are a magnificent species to be admired, yet some old ways are questioned by me, of course. My blasphemy.

Alors que la saison 5 est attendue sur Netflix pour début 2022, Alexander Dreymon a annoncé qu'il reprendra l'épée d'Uthred pour un film The Last Kingdom titré Seven Kings Must Die toujours sur la plateforme. La saison 5 apporte déjà une première conclusion, mais des questions restées en suspens seront résolues dans le film. Sur ces cinq saisons, l'histoire a débuté en 866 quand les côtes saxonnes étaient prises d'assaut par les Danois. Plusieurs décennies se sont écoulées entre temps et on espère que le héros réussira à reprendre ses terres d'origine de Bebbanburg. Pour rappel, la série est adaptée de la saga littéraire Les chroniques saxonnes de Bernard Cornwell qui est composé de 13 volumes pour le moment. https://twitter.com/TheLastKingdom/status/1452233801917206533

Herding cats, they find their way back to this hit Netflix series, "The Last Kingdom" that chronicles the life and times of Uhtred of Bebbanburg (aka, Uhtred son of Uhtred) and his loyalties to both Saxon and Danish leaders that sends him on a path to attempting to reclaim his homeland while also doing what he had to do to survive and prosper.

As seems appropriate for a character as resourceful, skilled, and self-confident as Uhtred of Bebbanburg, he goes from strength to strength. In addition to a set of bestselling novels, collectively dubbed The Saxon Tales, Uhtred has a television series to his name: The Last Kingdom, just renewed for its third year by Netflix. Here in his eleventh adventure, War of the Wolf (Harper, 2018), Uhtred should be enjoying the fruits of his labors over the last ten books, but of course, that story would be no fun to read or to write. Instead Uhtred, now past sixty, receives a summons to travel south to protect the fortress of Ceaster (Chester) on behalf of Aethelstan, the son of King Edward of Wessex. Uhtred soon realizes that the summons is a ruse: the greater danger lies in the North, in the person of the Dane Sköll and his warriors, who dose themselves with henbane to harness the power of the wolf. Sköll also has the support of a powerful sorcerer, who Uhtred comes to believe has cursed him—especially after Sköll attacks the city of Eoferwic (York), where Uhtred’s son-in-law rules, with devastating effect. Bernard Cornwell does not disappoint, and this latest entry in the Last Kingdom saga sees Uhtred at the top of his game and England a bit closer to its eventual unification, a goal that Uhtred both supports and fears as it becomes ever clearer that his kingdom, Northumbria, and his pagan religion increasingly pose the only barriers to King Edward’s success. C. P. Lesley is the author of eight novels, including Legends of the Five Directions (The Golden Lynx, The Winged Horse, The Swan Princess, The Vermilion Bird, and The Shattered Drum), a historical fiction series set in 1530s Russia, during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible.

Doug and Justin spent the first few minutes getting excited for their upcoming 104th episode and marginally less excited for their 100th. The heroes then use the show The Last Kingdom as a jumping off point to discuss what makes a good character vs what makes a bad character as well as some of their favorite fictional characters. Things are wrapped up with a throw-down with Uhtred of Bebbanburg from The Last Kingdom vs. Jamie Lannister from Game Of Thrones.
Here at New Books in Historical Fiction, we don’t often interview the same author twice. Bernard Cornwell is an exception. As I note in my introduction to this podcast, since I last interviewed him in June 2014, he has published three new Saxon Stories (now renamed the Last Kingdom series) and a nonfiction history of the confrontation between Napoleon and Wellington at Waterloo. Meanwhile, the BBC and Netflix have released his first two Last Kingdom novels as a hit television series, again under the title The Last Kingdom. With so much new material to discuss, a second interview seemed like the least we could do. The Flame Bearer (Harper, 2016) is the tenth novel narrated by Uhtred of Bebbanburg. Uhtred’s story, which began at the age of ten in 866, is tied up with the drive of King Alfred the Great and his children to create a single English kingdom out of four warring principalities–three of them, at the beginning of the series, under the control of Danish invaders. Uhtred–descendant of kings, Saxon ealdorman by birth, Dane by adoption, and warrior by both temperament and training–becomes Alfred’s secret weapon. A pagan lord never quite accepted by Alfred’s Christian court, a fighter for the Saxon cause who at heart prefers the Danes, Uhtred has one unchanging goal: to recover Bebbanburg, stolen from him in boyhood by his uncle and held in later years by his cousin, who refuses to recognize Uhtred’s prior claim. By 917, when The Flame Bearer begins, the situation portrayed in The Last Kingdom has reversed itself. The one remaining Saxon kingdom, Wessex, has expanded through alliance and conquest to include Mercia and East Anglia. Now the last kingdom is Northumbria, still largely under Danish control despite the existence of Saxon-held Bebbanburg. Sensing weakness, King Constantin of Scotland pushes south, pincering Northumbria between Saxons and Celts. And Uhtred must again choose between observing his oath of allegiance and recapturing his home. C. P. Lesley is the author of six novels, including Legends of the Five Directions (The Golden Lynx, The Winged Horse, and The Swan Princess), a historical fiction series set in 1530s Russia, during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible.

Here at New Books in Historical Fiction, we don’t often interview the same author twice. Bernard Cornwell is an exception. As I note in my introduction to this podcast, since I last interviewed him in June 2014, he has published three new Saxon Stories (now renamed the Last Kingdom series) and a nonfiction history of the confrontation between Napoleon and Wellington at Waterloo. Meanwhile, the BBC and Netflix have released his first two Last Kingdom novels as a hit television series, again under the title The Last Kingdom. With so much new material to discuss, a second interview seemed like the least we could do. The Flame Bearer (Harper, 2016) is the tenth novel narrated by Uhtred of Bebbanburg. Uhtred’s story, which began at the age of ten in 866, is tied up with the drive of King Alfred the Great and his children to create a single English kingdom out of four warring principalities–three of them, at the beginning of the series, under the control of Danish invaders.

Hoje contarei a história de como Uthred de Bebanburg lutou pela primeira vez em uma parede de escudos. Hoje eu conto a história do medo pré carnificina e do júbilo que acomete o peito após uma batalha. Hoje eu conto a história de uma das muitas vezes que a terra foi regada com sangue na busca de uma Inglaterra unificada. -PODCAST DIÁRIO DO MENESTREL-
Vi er hoppet en tur i tidsmaskinen og er rejst omkring 1000 år tilbage i tiden til år 872. Til en tid hvor vikingerne hærgede og stort set havde erobret hele England pånør Wessex og det er her vores historie finder sted. Vi har inviteret Max Hummelgaard med i studiet til at anmelde The Last Kingdom sammen med os i denne uge. Hvor vi skal se hvordan Uhtred of Bebbanburg, der som barn blev taget til fange af vikingerne og nu står over for det svære valg at skulle vælge mellem sin nordiske opvækst og sit fædreland. I nyhederne har vi bl.a nyheder om Netflix, Iron Fist, Star Wars Underground, Powers, The Leftover mm. Siden sidst har Martin set Hitman Agent 47 og Nikolaj har set Ant-Man samt begge har også taget et kig på Master of None.

As fans of Uhtred of Bebbanburg know, England in the ninth and tenth centuries is just an idea–a hope held by the kings of Wessex that they may someday unite the lands occupied by the Angles and Saxons, most of whom then lived under the control of Danish invaders. Not only England’s future hangs in the balance: spurred by King Alfred the Great of Wessex, Christianity has spread rapidly among the Saxons, but that early success threatens to crumble if the pagan Danes complete their conquest as planned. Enter Uhtred of Bebbanburg, a Northumbrian lord of Saxon descent, raised by the Danes and defiantly pagan, a warrior and leader of men. The rulers of Wessex can’t decide what to make of him, but they grudgingly admit that they need his help. As victory follows victory, Uhtred gains and loses estates, marries and buries wives, takes lovers both peasant and royal, and goes from battle to battle, dragging his sons in his wake. Uhtred has a cherished dream of his own, to reclaim Bebbanburg–his birthright, stolen from him by his uncle during Uhtred’s Danish childhood. In The Pagan Lord (HarperCollins, 2014) Uhtred has reached his mid-fifties, an advanced age for the tenth century. Much has changed with the death of Alfred the Great, and the new king of Wessex believes he can dispense with Uhtred’s services. When Uhtred’s eldest son announces that he has not only converted to Christianity but become a priest, Uhtred’s rage leads him to disinherit that son and to kill the abbot who tries to intervene. The Wessex court and Church strip Uhtred of his rights and banish him. Meanwhile, a hidden adversary has abducted the wife and children of the Danish leader Cnut and pinned the crime on Uhtred. Cnut retaliates by raiding and burning Uhtred’s estate, killing most of the inhabitants. With little to lose and everything to gain, Uhtred gathers his three dozen surviving warriors and sets off to storm the impregnable fortress of Bebbanburg. Bernard Cornwell has more awards and best-selling books than we can possibly list here. The Pagan Lord–and The Saxon Tales of which it is a part–opens a door onto a long-forgotten and under-appreciated past in a way that offers pure entertainment.
