Terra degli Angli, Anno del Signore 866. Quello che un giorno diventerà il regno d'Inghilterra è ancora una terra divisa in piccoli territori guidati da sovrani barbarici, appena convertiti al cristianesimo. E dal mare giungono strane navi dalle polene simili a draghi, le murate ornate di scudi: portano uomini feroci, vichinghi – che significa pirati –, guerrieri del Nord, danesi soprattutto.

Nono secolo dopo Cristo. La terra degli Angli è dominata da un fragile regno di guerrieri sassoni retto dal pio re Alfredo. Uhtred, giovane erede legittimo del titolo di aldermanno di Bebbanburg, allevato dai danesi ma tornato tra le braccia della fede cristiana, ha combattuto duramente per il suo re. Ma la gloria, la famiglia, l'onore acquisiti non lo soddisfano. Tradimenti, intrighi di corte, meschinità minano il suo animo avventuroso e, forse stregato dalla bellezza della fattucchiera Iseult, vorrebbe persino tornare a battere i mari sulle lunghe navi danesi.
