The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle is not the “Saxon Chronicles” by Cornwell. Not sure if you had them mixed up. I have read the entire series by Cornwell but haven’t touched the tome.
Thanks you for pointing that out. I’ve read substantial portions of both, and wondered why the monks suddenly became obsessed with Utred son of Utred.
If you haven’t watched the BBC-TV’s “The Last Kingdom”, it’s fun entertainment. I enjoyed seeing how the film-makers adapted Cornwell’s stories.
