Mr Cornwell,

I am a keen student of Mythology. Your Saxon series has been most refreshing, and your stance of having the protagonist a Pagan in a Christian world really lifts the novel, by giving more colour and depth to the subtext of the drama.

My favourite novel was the first in the Series: The Lost Kingdom, as I felt that it explored the Pagan themes the most deeply. I hope you went to the British Museum to see the Viking Exhibition recently, perhaps there was some treasure of Uhtred’s there? I liked to think so. I sincerely hope you continue this fine series, and explore Norse Mythology more. I get the impression if you yourself were in the novel, you would be a Pagan over Christian – am I right in that?

Thank You,

Stefan Page
