Hi Bernard,
I am very interested in viking history, and I love the Saxon Stories so I would like to comment about 3 things:
• I’m now finishing the 6th book – Death of Kings – and I realised that the Uhtred’s books follow a standard, all the books so far are fast to read, I mean, the average number of pages is about 390. I like it very much and it makes the collection to be “standardized”, do you do that consciously or it’s coincidental?
• I’m sure that everyone loves Uhtred, so do I, but I also appreciate people like Beoca, Osferth, Father Willibald, Finan, Cuthbert the Unnecessary and MANY MANY others, without them the book wouldn’t be so amazing. So my 2nd comment is: I wonder if Uhtred and his men will travel into Ireland and help Finan to repossess his lands, who knows? Ireland isn’t so far… I suppose it wouldn’t be easy, well, I think that we need to keep reading to find out!
• Finally after reading Death of Kings I was wondering how old is Uhtred now, it seems to me that he’s still very young, something about 34 years old. Is that correct?

Thank you very much Mister Cornwell!
Greetings,

Bender
