Mr. Cornwell, Having read The Pale Horsemen, I am now left with a large void. I have read all your works! I would ask you a question of your style. How, when and what are the circumstances that determine whether you write in 1st or 3rd person. I have two favorites that differ on how the story is told. Of course the Arthur series is 1st person but I loved the Starbuck series in 3rd. Thanks for your attention. John Hooper Tennessee
As to 1st versus 3rd person - it honestly depends on a whim! I wish I could say it was more serious than that, but it isn't.
