Dear Mr. Cornwell, Just wanted to thank you for the many priceless hours I've spent reading the sharpe series. I am currently just finishing up "Sharpes Devil". That makes 20 of 20! With the exception of one I own them all in trade paperback (I wish I had started the collection in hardcover oh well) and they now hold a top shelf position in my library. I do wish however to add my name to the long list of people who have read and hope you finish the "Starbuck Chronicles". I have read and reread them several times now and absolutely love them.(the only other books I have ever read more than once are the Tolkien series) Anyways, I just wanted to say that I'm lovin what you are doing, keep it up and have a happy New Year. -Sincerely --Jason Francis, Stevens Point, Wi

Dear Mr. Cornwell, I just wanted to take this opportunity to express my thanks to you for the many hours of pleasure I have received from reading your Sharpe Books. Only a few authors have reached me the way you have. I read the Hornblower series by C. S. Forester and loved it. My father (back in England) kept telling me to read Sharpe. He finally sent me one of the books (Sharpe's Devil) and after reading it I became hooked. I have now read eleven of the twenty and have thoroughly enjoyed each one. You express yourself so well and you keep me on the edge of my seat the whole time. You also write the characters real enough for me to feel a kinship with them. My other favorite authors have passed away and so it is a great honor for me to have the means of thanking you personally (albeit through email) for your fine work. Warm personal regards, Brad

Dear Bernard After reading that you had a Cancer operation I just wanted to write in and give you my best wishes and all the best for the future yours sincerely, Geraint

Hi I've just read the Saturday Telegraph article by Toby Clements and his non mention of your 'sailing' books led me to your website & your comment that there may not be any more. That would be sad. I've searched airport bookshelves every time I travel hoping to find another - do please give it some thought. Regards Ian Bremner

Hello Mr Cornwell, I've just been reading through your "writing advice" page and wanted to let you now how useful (and inspiring) I found it. I've just finished writing a children's novel this week and I've got to say there's been times when it's been one long hard (but enjoyable) slog. It's reassuring to know that it's the same for every writer! Many thanks, Steve Renwick

Sir, I know you probably get this all the time, we here in the U.S. are ready for Stonewall to march again(Starbuck along with him). Please, continue soon, and thanks for all the great stories. Matthew Figgins

Mr.Cornwell, Thank you for writing books that capture the imagination and the heart. I first started reading your books when I was in eighth grade (Starbuck Chronicles)and have continued reading them post-undergraduate. As a history major I enjoy and appreciate reading your books and if I could see one of your characters "ride again," I think it would have to be Starbuck. Once again thanks and I look forward to finishing the Grail Quest series and the rest of what your fascinating mind has to share! Gambier, OH USA

Dear Sir; I am a Confederat reenactor a member of E Co 5th Texas. Resently we were allowed to camp at Dunker Church. Your book Bloody Ground brought so much more to the experience than the rangers tour. Respectfully Yours. Gator Private ANV CSA

Firstly. Thanks for signing my copy of The Pale Horseman at leadenhall market the other day. Haven't read it yet as I'm going to read Last Kingdom again first. Hope you found the article about the longbows I left you interesting. Secondly. Sorry for not asking after you as I only got my bulletin from the S.A.S. after seeing you again. Hope the recovery is now complete. Nigel

Dear Mr. Cornwell, I have just finished The Pale Horseman. When I first began reading historical fiction I never would have believed it could cause such varing emotions within me. I've laughed & become angry & cried with every page of your latest book. Thank you so very much for giving me a front row seat into the life of Uhtred. I am amazed at how you can bring a reader into your stories. Every time I open one of your books I am always transported to that point in history. I tried to read The Pale Horseman as slowly as possible in an effort to savour each word, but alas I am finished & desperately awaiting the next instalment! Thank you for being such a wonderful author. Best wishes, Hannah
