I wonder if you ever get tired of hearing how much people love your books? Well here comes another gushing fan, you really are the best, I look forward to your novels with relish and they speak to me on a level of ancient memory I can’t even define, as if they are remnants of a dream of of my past. I too am adopted and have recently discovered that I have Norse heritage and I wondered how you found your connection to the Uhtred’s of Northumbria? Lynda Purcell
