Hi Bernard, I am a huge fan and have read both the Saxon stories and the Arthur books and am looking forward to Azincourt. The books are an enormous help for me as I travel endlessly with work so Uhtred and Derfel have kept me going on long haul flights airport lounges and long train journeys. I cannot thank you enough for this, I do hate though finishing a novel by you though because then there is that agonising period where I await your next book, I have found some similar authors though and am a huge fan of historical fiction based on fact. Conn Iggulden with the Emperor series and now his series on Ghengis Khan alongside Valerio Massimo Manfredi with his Alexander legend and also the many roman novels. I also admired and continue to admire David Gemmels works, although more sci fi than historical fiction I loved the series on Troy. Can you give me a brief synopsis on Azincourt?

And is there any plans to witness Derfels final battle? Keep up the amazing work. Rory Brisby
