Tom Holland, Athelstan

 Part of the pocket-size Penguin Monarchs series, and fewer than 100 pages. We've been watching The Last Kingdom on Netflix, and Kev was asking about the historicity of it so I thought I'd have a refresh. The earlier series revolving around Alfred's court seemed to have been fairly historically accurate as you'd expect from Bernard Cornwell, but the more recent series seem to take  much larger liberties (which is fine, it's all just a bit of fun). Freddie is off on another explorer trip this weekend, this time to the Brecon Beacons, He is a little worried, but I'm very proud of him
