Mr Cornwell, kudos on your literary achievements. I have, sadly, read only one of your books, The Last Kingdom (which although I had heard of from writer George R. R. Martin, I bought only because it had vikings on it). I have now bought An Archer’s Tale and The Pale Horseman, and would like to know if you have any idea of when the new book in the Saxon – Dane saga will be arriving to USA?

Also, if it was possible to say which time it is when Uhtred Ragnarson of Bebanburg and Oxton is writing the story of his life?

And, any books you can recommend to give an insight on life in those ages, such as books you used for research before writing your novel. Diego Lazcano
