Mr. Cornwell, please let me say that no one was more surprised than I in finding how much I truly enjoy your writing! Being a 54-year-old female, I never thought I would be interested in books where the art of war is at the forefront. Well, I did spend 3 years in the US Army, but I’m not enamored with it. I first read Agincourt which I found at the library, I had been deep in Ancestry.com and found some ancestors who fought that battle so I thought it might be interesting. After reading that first book for free, I decided I needed to collect the books so I can have them at my disposal for re-reading. Wouldn’t you know, I began at the end with The Saxon Tales and read The Burning Land first. I love this series and wish to know when the next one will come out? Is it in progress or have you wandered off to other pastures? I believe we probably share some ancient ancestors and I, too, have an ancestor named Uchtred from Northumbria(as he appears in the Ancestry.com records) as well as several lines back to Alfred the Great. Blame my Scot-Irish lines–they seem to have come from all parts of Europe. Interesting thing, to me anyway, is I looked at your Sharpe series and have not read any as of yet, since I am not really interested in that time period, but 3 of my 4 great-grandmothers were all named Sharp. Yes, I am an in-bred American who is related to the entire world it would seem. Anyway, I look forward to reading the further adventures of Uhtred of Bebbenburg and want you to know I love how you tell a story. Thank you, Donna

Is there to be another book in the Saxon Stories series? When might it be published?

Mr Cornwell. Thank you for the great writing and stories. Could you please tell me whether there will be another instalment of the Saxon Stories and more adventures for Uhtred. All your other books are great and I’ve just read the Arthur Stories again for the 5th or 6th time. Thank you. Drew Caulfield

When can we expect the next saxon tale? I love Uhtred and can’t wait for the next Adventure! Keep up the great work! Clay Seydler

Hi, Mr. Cornell I want know…Where are my friend Uhtred and your adventures? Any ideas to next months? thanks

Hello, I’m a 15 year old girl and a massive fan of the story of Uhtred. I have read the series countless amounts of times and would like to know whether you are going to continue the books soon? I love the way Uhtred deals with conflict and love his reasoning. I can’t wait till he storms the walls of Bebbanburg and slays his treacherous Uncle. Have you any recommendations? (I’ve read Thomas of Hookton which was class) best wishes, Sammy a lover of Uhtred and Thor

Please can you tell me when we can expect the next in the series about Uhtred of Bebbanburgh. I love these books and would love to find out what happens next. I really hope it will be very soon. Best wishes.

Hello, i don’t expect a prompt reply to this e-mail because you must be so busy but i just have to ask having read The Saxon Series for the second time….. when is the next book due to come out? I am totally captivated by these books and find my self desperate to dissolve myself back into the next episode. I grew up in the North East and had frequent trips to Bamburgh castle as a child and still go there when i can to wander the beach and feel the space. In fact my father who is the artist Fenwick Lawson nearly bought the castle with a bunch of other North East artists when i was a child. The idea was to make some sort of ‘artists haven’ where they could all work, drawing inspiration from their roots…or some such idea. Even though the idea fell through, my imagination has continued to place me there as a small boy…. looking out to sea and being blown by the sea breeze. He has a beautiful bronze of St Cuthbert on Lindisfarne in the old priory now. If you find your self in that part of the world, take a look….. its magnificent! He also is an avid fan of the books.. so when you get a moment, let me know so i can relax and pace myself. With much appreciation of your wonderful writing, Greg Lawson
