Hello. I now have your book, the pale horseman, in Dongying, Shandong, China. I just love it. I will use it to test my student oral english later in the year. Are there any places in the world where your books do not sell? Look forward to the next one. Nicholas Langrick

It's just a shame all your work hasn`t been published here in Portugal. well good work and farwell .Hope your work from now on will be here. I have only 10 books of yours, thanks and goodbye;). Sandro Ribeiro

Dear Mr. Bernard Cornwell I am very sad for I am almost done with the PALE HORSEMAN You are one Dammm good history teacher. I guess all I can do is start the Sharp stories all over again . Thank you so much. Laurence Brill

I just wanted to give you a quick thanks. My sister and I are heading for a visit to Somerset and the West Country this May to track down some ancestral sites and possibly some relatives. We are planning to visit Stonehenge, so I read your novel by that name. I loved it and have now gone on to many of your other novels, including your Arthur series. They have given me an extra dimesion to the places we will see and I wanted you to know how much I appreciate your talent. Thanks for many hours of great reading. Cathy Weber

Mr. Cornwell, I just want to tell you how much I enjoy your books. There are no better stories. If I learned history this way in High School, I may have become a Historian! You make my daily commute by train into Boston from the South Shore a pleasure. No need to reply. Just passing on my thanks! David Chambers Abington, Massachusetts

Dear Mr Cornwell, No questions from me , just a huge thank you for the hours of contentment you give me when i begin and finish one of your novels , only to be gutted when its finished. Your Warlord Chronicle series are the best set of books I have ever read. I have enjoyed Arthurian legends since I was 8 and have been King Arthur mad ever since , and loved your adaption. Anyhow I don't want to waffle on , just wish to say a big thank you and keep up the good work. A truly marvelous story teller. Rich Bishop 26 , UK. Ps You can slip the fiver in the post.

Mr. Cornwell, Sorry to break it to you but bedsprings were first patented in 1885 by two inventors, J.P. Leggett and C.B. Platt, who were both residents of Carthage, a small county in southwest Missouri. But I'm sure we won't hold it against you :) R. Kulb

hi, I just read Harlequin and Vagabond, and I must congratulate you! (even if you don't get to read this) I am not a reading person but for some reason, after a friend suggested Harlequin to me, I was fascinated. I love the way you build the plots and the way you control the information in a way that we readers imagine what's gonna happen but it's still not right, and then when we finally get there and find out, I just go "I knew it... wow this guy is a genius". You are a tremendous writer! I also love the subtle humor that's kind of scary but realistic, war is a horrible thing and you describe it so well without terrifying and disgusting, even when showing every little aspect and detail of it. I'm now starting Heretic... but for some reason I just can't continue reading because I don't want it to end... especially because I just read on your "frequently asked questions" page that Thomas won't have any more adventures... anyways I just wanted to say you are a tremendous writer and made me remember how good and pleasant reading a book is! PS.: sorry for any wrong names or even grammatical and punctuation errors.. I am Brazillian and read the two first books of The Garil Quest in portuguese, going for the third. again congratulations for your marvelous work. Joana

Dear Mr. Cornwell I recently stumbled across your books and was instantly captivated by the vibrancy of the characters and the beautiful storytelling you've employed. I started with the Warlord Chronicles which was honestly one of the most mesmerizing series of books I've ever read. I'm eagerly working my way through the Grail Quest trilogy now and will soon besiege my local libraries and bookstores with requests for all of the Sharpe Series, the Saxon Stories and all the other wonderful material you have written. I confess, you have gotten me quite hooked on historical fiction. I just wanted to thank you, Mr. Cornwell for giving us such fascinating reading material. Thanks once more, please keep writing ~Anisha Prasad

I've loved every one of your novels and I'm sorry to sound like a nerdy engineer, but the hilarious episode with the wheelbarrow in A Pale Horseman could never have happened as the earliest record of wheelbarrows in Western Europe is around 1200. Alastair Gunn
