I have, in the past ten minutes, picked up my copy of The Empty Throne from Waterstones (they are just round the corner from my office), and I, being an insatiable Uhtred fan, am wondering how many more books there will be on his story.  I recall, possibly just after the release of Death of Kings, that you were asked this question and your reply was along the lines of “definitely seven, possibly ten”. I’ve scanned the other questions and saw that at the beginning of October you mentioned in a reply that you needed “finish Uhtred”, which implies at least a ninth book, yes?  I can’t wait to leave work this afternoon and get reading, and now I shall leave you in peace! :-)
