I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your Arthurian trilogy. I have read most of the saga's, from Lawhead to Stewart, but your account was by far the most enjoyable. I almost felt as if I was there with Derfel at the end-thanks again for a great story. Nik Taritas

I would like to thank you for many hours of pleasure your books have given me I have every one Thanks once again. John Molyneux

I have not read a book for donkeys years and someone gave me The Last Kingdom on holiday in June. Since then I have read all the Saxon stories and will go onto the Arthur books. Thank you for the excellent reads you have produced.

Mr. Cornwell, I have read, with tremendous admiration, all of your books. Thanks for the pure joy you have provided me. You continually improve, Sharpe's Fury is a masterly work. I am very glad you chose to write about that particular battle. Best regards, Edward Good

Hello, I just wanted to write real quick and say thanx for all your hard work. I just recently finished reading The Last Kingdom and I enjoyed it very much. I am a long time lover of sci-fi, fantasy, sword & sorcery type stuff, especially the author Michael Moorock, as I have collected over 75 of his old out of print titles. But I really liked your more realistic Historical Fiction type writing, and I can't wait to buy some more. Actually I think I'm starting to develop a fetish for British writers. You guys just seem to write differently then most Americans. Ok I think I'm rambling now. I'm just excited to have found another author to add to my bookshelf and my collection list. Thanx again. -Eric Zollman

Dear Mr. Cornwell, I was somehow convinced that "Lords of the North" was the last book of the Saxon Stories. When I bought the book I felt a little bit sad that this would be the last time I would be transported back to ninth century England. At the end of the book I was worrying if Uhtred could get Bebbanburg back in time with so few pages remaining. I am very pleased to read in your historical note that Uhtred will need Sepent Breath again and that a new book will be published. Thank you! Leon Ruyters

Mr Cornwell, May I say I have been totally immersed by your books after been given 'Stone Henge' as a gift some 4 years ago. Your 'Arthur' Books 'Grail Quest' and 'Saxon' series have totally mesmerised my imagination and I cant compliment you enough on your story writing. I look forward to the next adventures of Uhtred in 'Sword Song' and hope their will be many more books from you in the future of warrior ship, mysticism, religion and war. Who needs to invent a 'Time Machine' when your books send me back to that age whenever I open one of your books! Fantastic ;0) Many thanks Joph

Dear Mr. Cornwell, I'm writing to you to let you know the much I appreciate your work, especially in the Arthur Books, the ones I'm reading (I'm halfway the second one). I just can't stop reading it! Indeed, I even developped something deeper with some characters, like the deepest love and hate. It's something impossible to describe what those books can do with the reader. Sometimes, I feel like I was just there, sitting besides Derfel and hearing Arthur's voice, talking about his wish to destroy the saxons and build the eternal peace. When I'm reading it, I have to set a clock to beep, or I will just go through afternoon to night reading it and won't notice time passing. This e-mail is a bit longer than planned, sorry, but was the best I could do to express all my excitement. Thank you very very much for your work and time reading this. And sorry if my English fails sometimes, that's because I'm brazilian and not fluent. Best regards, João Paulo.

My mother introduced me to Richard Sharpe well over 20 years ago (Mama died in 1986, but she would have loved the newer series.) and I have been hooked ever since. I have given just about all your books a try, but the modern stuff and King Arthur, Stonehenge too, just never grabbed my interest the way Sharpe, Starbucks, and, recently, Uhtred, have. I was tickled to death last month to see some Brits find a Viking hoard with their metal detectors, right after reading Uhtred himself had misplaced a hoard or two. Can't you speed up the release of the new book so we can hear Serpents Breath sing again? Katie McDonald

I discovered your books with "Rebel" when I was 12 years old, way back in 1993. I read each new book after that as it came out, in hardback, and I've been waiting, what is it now, ten years for the next volume? My father likes to tell me about Stephen King's "Dark Tower" - which I have read to completion - and how long he had to wait for THAT one to finish. We're not talking about another 20 years of waiting here, I hope? :) While I'm sure it was neat for my dad to have an adult son he could discuss the series with when it finally concluded, I don't know that I want to have adult children of my own before I find out what happens to Nathaniel Starbuck!
