When will you be doing your next signing in London for your new book, and where will it be? Miss Gwyther

The Warlord Chronicles are the finest story I've had the pleasure to read. I like to imagine an old and tired Derfel standing his ground against the saxons at the gates of Dinnewrac, and in the ensuing fight the old warrior returns for one last battle before he jouneys to the otherworld. Robert Milson

Dear Mr. Cornwell, I have read every one of your many books. Thank you for the hours of pleasure I have enjoyed! You must continue the Starbuck Chronicles! Jean H.Kouns.

Hi, in Sharpe's Havoc beginning of chapter 6 you mention in passing the uniform of Lieut. Pelletieu of the French artillery. You describe his breeches and waistcoat as being white. I beleive the uniform of the French Artillery was all blue, including the breeches and waistcoat, with black gaiters and red cuffs and collars. The uniform was very similar to the French Legere. It had not really changed since the days of the old royalist army of the ancien regime. Thought you'd like to know because you always go in for great detail in your novels. Roger

Hi, I've been reading your books for years. I got a galley of "The Winter King" from a friend in England well before it was published in the States and I loved it. I felt the realism and detail were superb, and coming from a devout Arthurian Legend Geek, that's saying something. Then in a movie rental store, I saw a VHS of one of the Sharpe series. Seeing as it was based on your novels, and I loved your work I rented it. Fell in love with the character, rented all they had, decided Sean Bean was the bomb and became a huge fan of his before most Americans even knew who he was. I now own all the movies on DVD. I am working my way through the entire Sharpe Series and have enjoyed every book. I have read all the Arthur books, Stonehenge, the Grail Quest, "Redcoat," and I just finished reading "The Gallow's Thief." Someday I will get to the Starbuck Chronicles. If I could have read any book in the world, it would be a book set in the 16th century dealing with the Landsknecht written by you. Just an idea... wink wink, nudge nudge. Of course you may have no interest in that period, but I find it fascinating. Anyway, keep up the great work. I'll always be a fan. Dana

Since my grandfather was a union soldier in the Civil War I am fascinated by the Starbuck series, PLEASE don't stop at Antietam. Thank you..Papa Bob

Hello, I am a huge fan of the Sharpe Books and I own the complete video collection. I lived on the Cape untill 1998 and moved out west where I shared my videos and books with friends. I am back now in the Boston area and I want to thank you for hours and hours of awesome reading !!! I also enjoy reading about early New England History King Philips war 1675 and the Pequot war of 1634-1637. As a fan of History these two wars that are long lost with the People of New England show a great insight to early life around here. I only bring these to your attention incase you are interested in learning more about what went on in our area. Thanks for your time, Roy

Bernard, I have read the first two books in the Grail Quest series and I thought they were fantastic. I have always been interested in history, and I thought the combination of historical realism and a cracking story made for an extremely good read. However, although I am dying to know what happens next, for various reaons I have been waiting for Heretic to be published in paperback before I buy it. Do you know when this is likely to happen? Congratulations again on the great books. All the best, Andy.

Not only have you provided me with hours of excellent entertainment, you also kindly give of your time to read your fans' questions! Thank you for both! Paula Santirocco

Hello Mr Cornwell. I'm reading the Warlord Chronicles for the 10th time, and really enjoyed the Grail Quest. Can I ask you when you'll be continuing the Starbuck books? Also, with the success of Lord of the Rings, when can we expect Arthur to come to the big screen; surely someone in Hollywood has the sense to approach you. Jon Cobb
