About

For decades, Tony Robinson has been one of Britain's most familiar guides to the past, whether playing Baldrick in 'Blackadder' or through his long role presenting the BBC's 'Time Team'. In 'The House of Wolf', his first work of historical fiction, Robinson brings storytelling flair to a lifelong fascination with early English history.

This is an earthy, entertaining and gloriously witty recreation of the Anglo-Saxon world that moves through the age of Alfred the Great and the violent, uncertain making of England. In conversation with bestselling author of 'Heresy', S. J. Parris, they will reflect on the pleasures and challenges of historical fiction.
