Just finishing Heretic, and enjoying it to the last. Mr. Cornwell, thank you for your article on writing advice, and the reference to the Historical Novel Society. Having grown up with your books I look foward to many years of your exciting works. Jesse Hamilton

I was listening to Andy Steward sing the Scottish Soldier. Andy Steward is a singer as you may or may not know, BUT that's not the point, the song the Scottish Soldier reminds me a lot of McCandless, if you havn't heard it, well try and find it and listen to it, and I'm sure you can hear McCandless singing it just like I did.

I'm a 23 year old law student in Birmingham, uk and unfortunately have spent the begining of this year reading the Sharpe novels instead of doing my work which means that I have received a flurry of scowles from my partner. I have only read the first five so this question is probably a little premature but here goes. I thought Trafalgar gave Sharpe an exciting new scenario for battle and wondered if you were ever tempted to create a series dedicated to sea battles, I would love to read about Chase, Collier, Clouter and Hopper on other adventures. Thank you very much for filling my study leave with excitment and adventure. Lewis.

Ahoy Mr. Cornwell, I've been a fan of your work for a number of years now! I've enjoyed reading and watching all of the Sharpe books and movies and own them all. I'm so glad that you continue to "fill in the blanks" of the series with new books now and then. I just finished up the last Grail book and I'm glad that I figured out where the Grail was hidden. My question to you is this:Do you have any plans for a side series of books for Captain Chase from Sharpes Trafalgar and Sharpes Prey? Quite a few people in my book circle are into the "nautical fiction" genre and we would all love to see Chase have his own set of adventures. Thank you for sharing your great talent of writing with all of us. K Thompson

Hello my name's Mattia, I'm Italian. Your books are very beautiful, you're great! I don't speak English very well, I don't have any words to thank you! Bye, Mattia

Dear Mr. Cornwell, I am a Brasilian fan and I have enjoyed the Arthur book, it is very involving, exciting and rich in details. Unfortunately, I only have found the Arthur books in Brazil. The Grail Quest is out of print, because its enomous success. I would like to ask you to contact the Record publishing house in Brazil to continue publishing the Grail Quest, so, I can remain appreciating your briliant work. Best regards. Marcus Coelho

Mr. Cornwell, I have heard, and hope you will confirm that when 'Sharpe's Escape' is released you will be coming to Canada for a promotion tour and book signing. And that one of the stops you will be making will be in Burlington, Ontario. I attended a reading and signing by Jack Whyte at an independent book store in Burlington, the owner proudly announced he had been contacted by your publishers and heartily accepted the offer. Thom

Hi, Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know I've really enjoyed the Sharpe's series. Keep 'em coming! Ken Murphy

I stumbled onto Archer's Tale last week and, as of today, I've read it, Vagabond, Heretic, and Gallow's Thief. Except for the fact that I'm pretty sure this is 2004 and that Thomas of Hookton is a creature of your imagination, I would almost swear that I fought with him - I could smell the cannon sulphur, hear the hoofbeats, and taste the ale. Your writing is wonderful. Though Thomas has found the Grail, I hope the series doesn't end now. I would also love to see Rider Sandman turned into a series character. We don't get much cricket coverage here in the States, so the cricket in Gallows Thief was much appreciated and enjoyed. I wish you the very best, and I thank you for providing me with such joy.

Hi Bernard, Thanks for the hours of informative enjoyment I have received from your books. I have particularly enjoyed the Grail series, and have been inspired to research the medieval period (and also the Cathar story) myself. I am looking forward to reading the third book in the series and wish you well in your future endeavours. Heather

Mr Cornwell, only found out your site today and I just wanted to say that I can't get enough of your Sharpe series. I devour each new book in around 2 days and impatiently :) wait for the next one to hit the shelves. I'm currently re-reading Sharpe's Gold again for the 3rd time whilst I await your new one in April. Keep up the good work and please write more regularly :) The Sharpe novels I mean. Gary Walsh
