The first installment of Bernard Cornwell’s bestselling series chronicling the epic saga of the making of England, “like Game of Thrones, but real”—the basis for The Last Kingdom, the hit television series on Netflix.

This is the exciting—yet little known—story of the making of England in the 9th and 10th centuries, the years in which King Alfred the Great, his son and grandson defeated the Danish Vikings who had invaded and occupied three of England’s four kingdoms.

The story is seen through the eyes of Uhtred, a dispossessed nobleman, who is captured as a child by the Danes and then raised by them so that, by the time the Northmen begin their assault on Wessex (Alfred’s kingdom and the last territory in English hands) Uhtred almost thinks of himself as a Dane…

This thrilling adventure—based on existing records of Bernard Cornwell’s ancestors—depicts a time when law and order were ripped violently apart by a pagan assault on Christian England, an assault that came very close to destroying England.

This is the "delightful" New York Times bestseller that’s earned raves from Sarah Blake, Helen Simonson, and reviewers everywhere–the story of three sisters who love each other, but just don’t happen to like each other very much…

Three sisters have returned to their childhood home, reuniting the eccentric Andreas family. Here, books are a passion (there is no problem a library card can’t solve) and TV is something other people watch. Their father-a professor of Shakespeare who speaks almost exclusively in verse-named them after the Bard’s heroines. It’s a lot to live up to.

The sisters have a hard time communicating with their parents and their lovers, but especially with one another. What can the shy homebody eldest sister, the fast-living middle child, and the bohemian youngest sibling have in common? Only that none has found life to be what was expected; and now, faced with their parents’ frailty and their own personal disappointments, not even a book can solve what ails them…

"When I was born, I was unwanted. When I married Charles, I was unwanted. When I joined the Royal Family, I was unwanted. I want to be wanted." –Diana, Princess of Wales

Where were you the day Diana died? Like the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the tragic death of the Princess of Wales on August 31, 1997 is one of the defining benchmarks in history – an event that touched each of us so profoundly we will never forget the moment we heard the news.

Twenty-five years after the Paris car crash that ended Diana’s life at age thirty-six, the story of her remarkable life and tragic death still have the power to mesmerize. Following her storybook wedding to Prince Charles, she had evolved from "Shy Di" into the planet’s most photographed, written-about, and talked-about woman – indeed, the most famous person in the world. For all Diana’s global fame, much of the human drama that swirled around her death remained veiled in mystery and intrigue.

Here, in the manner of his other 17 New York Times bestsellers, Christopher Andersen draws upon important sources — many of whom are agreeing to speak for the first time — to re-create in vivid and often startling detail the events leading up to that fateful night in Paris.
