I like your books. I’ve read many from different authors and yours are unbeatable. I am not a writer due to my own lethargy and laziness(I’m not sure that’s spelled right), but I still enjoy reading and evaluating(?) characters. So far one of my favorites has been King Alfred. Do you like him? Apparently Uhtred doesn’t, but I see a very intelligent man who gives power only to people he knows he can control. I also have to congratulate you for the constant change in some characters that comes from maturity. Derfel seem naive in the first part of the first book, and very clever when writing the story. I noticed you like writing through the point of view of men who lived next to “historical celebrities”. Will you write at least one book through the eyes of a famous person? I guess not, as that might take some of the liberty away. Thank you. Charlie Rodeiro
