So, at the end of the incoming fifth series, quality Netflix TV series The Last Kingdom with finally come to an end. It’s a series that has delivered
consistently enjoyable television and, thanks to it being adapted from pre-existing novels, has really boasted strong plots and characters, as well as a great sense of historical time and place.
But now The Last Kingdom TV series is coming to an end and that leaves, at least in my mind, a huge hole to fill. Set in 9th and 10th century England, The Saxon Stories series from which The Last Kingdom has been adapted, transported readers back to the culture of the day really well and, with its great mix of historical and fictional characters, as well as overarching vikings vs saxons conflict, made for compelling viewing, too.
