Q

Dear Sir, I thank whoever sat in judgement of your request for residency when you arrived in the USA. As you have said, it forced you to start writing your books in order to earn a living. It has made my world a more enjoyable place to have found your books and escape into them. To learn some history at the same time is a big bonus. I have come late to your novels and am halfway through Sharpe. But please Mr Cornwell give us some more Starbuck novels. I for one have to disagree with you when you say they are too much like the Sharpe novels. For what you have given your readers I say a big thankyou. Steve Phelps

Q

I just finished reading Sword Song, and i thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm just now left with nothing to read until the next one is released. I love the way you have changed Uhtred's personality slightly as he ages from a boy to a cocky early 20 and then a matured man, it is very well done and makes the story that much better. I've also read the grail quest trio and may start on the Sharpe while i wait for Uhtred's return. Thank you for some great books and look forward to reading more of them in the future.

Q

Dear Bernard I've just finished Sword Song and it is great. Uhtred is possibly my favourite Cornwell character so I'm looking forward to the next one! Anyway I have put up a swift appreciation of it on our new blog (http://www.ospreyblog.com/blog/authors/richard.html) and hope you will drop by sometime for a bit of a read. Kind regards, Richard, Osprey Publishing

Thank you very much!


Q

Love your books. I'm in Canada and am also a sailor (Hobie 18). My mom's maiden name is Cornwell My cousin Ward Cornwell looks very much like you. I'll try to scan a picture and send it to you. Not sure if you do any family tree stuff. Stephen Riches

Welcome, cousin, if that's what you are! My mother and her sister both married Cornwells from Newfoundland, and I also have Cornwell cousins living in British Columbia . . . so who knows? Eh? I shall have to rethink my attitude to ice hockey.


Q

Sir, just completed "Heretic". Thank you once again for transporting me to the 14th century. Through your mind I lived along side Thomas, witnessing his trials and self doubts. I heard the sound of arrows overhead and the clash of steel. I was sickened by the agony and the blood, all thanks to your skills in returning your reader to those days. Once again, thank you. David California.


Q

In response to a recently posted question, I'm pretty certain that Bold Sons of Erin is one of Owen Parry's Civil War detective novels. Well worth reading, as he does an excellent job of voicing his Welsh protagonist. Eric


Q

Dear Mr Cornwell, I thank you so much for the Autographs ... I stuck them into my first two Books of the German Versions of the Saxon Stories ... I am looking forward to the third Part "Lords of the North ... Die Herren des Nordens" ... It will be released in the German Version in January 2008 ... Best Regards Martin Nolte


Q

Hi Mr Cornwell. I am just writing this to tell you how much I enjoy reading your stories. Over the last few months I have read the Grail Quest series, The Arthur Books and the first three books in the Saxon Stories. I am looking forward to reading Sword Song, and I'm sure it will be just as enjoyable as all your other books. Thank you for writing such enjoyable stories. Jamie Shelton


Q

I have to let you know that I truly love your books. I started reading them with the Arthur Books, then progressed to the Grail Quest and others, including the Saxon Stories and Thrillers. My latest, and favorite series, are the Sharpe Books and I've acquired them all. It will be a sad day when I finish the last one. I've been reading them in chronological order (theme, not publish date) and just finished Sharpe's Company. I was a poor history student, for the subject seemed dry, but I find history from your perspective to be not only palatable, but memorable. It's good that you put the explanations at the end so that what's real is discernible from the parts you devised for your story. Thank you for your contribution to my entertainment. Deborah
