Hi Bernard, Can I firstly say I’m a big fan of your work and have just finished The Burning Land and look forward to the next story from Uhtred. I myself am from Canvey Island and went to college in Benfleet, so was wondering whether that’s it for Uhtred now in the town? Or whether northward only for him? Also, in regards to the ships that were kept in Benfleet, how big were they, and how many? Seeing the creek today makes me find it hard to believe warships could fit there! whether the tide was in or not! unless the size of the creeks altered drastically in 1100 years? Thanks again for your incredible stories!
