Incidentally, John Blair's book that looks at this core 'eastern zone' of Anglo-Saxon England, 'Building Anglo-Saxon England' (2018), really is well worth a read, if you haven't already read it :)      fuente

Uncover the hidden truth behind the Vikings' invasion of England with this captivating book. Delve into the complexities of their motivations and see them beyond the stereotypical portrayal of indiscriminate raiders. Using forgotten medieval texts and native tales, the author Eleanor Parker paints a picture of Vikings who also sought to settle personal feuds, intervene in English politics, and find a place to call home. Discover how the legacy of the newcomers can still be seen in the landscape, place-names, and local history of England today.

Needless to say, the version of the Havelok tale mentioned above is somewhat different to that found in the 13th-century poem Havelok. For more on Havelok, see @ClerkofOxford's excellent book 'Dragon Lords': :)      fuente
