I have thoroughly enjoyed all your saxon stories and the adventures of Uhtred and earnestly request that you feature my home town of Derby in any later books as although I love the place dearly it is a very boring town and reading about its exciting history would be a joy. I pass a large church called St Werburghs most days and am reminded of Aethelflaed in many places hereabouts as well as all the viking gates still named. A large thankyou for great entertainment and providing me with the sight of my teenage daughter avidly reading and enjoying books that contain more references to her surname than she has otherwise hitherto seen. Best regards. Steve Alderman.
