Hello, You recently said you’ve just finished writing the follow up to The Last Kingdom (which I adored), so I was wondering what is the next book you will start to write? Also concerning the follow up, will this book be set around Uhtred? or based around his son Uhtred Uhtredson? (is that the right name?) I loved how you wrote about Uhtred’s transition from boyhood to manhood in The Last Kingdom and could understand how you want to keep that. Also how many more Last Kingdom books will there be? Thank you very much for your time, James Trethowan.

Dear Mr. Cornwell, Two questions. Firstly, do you have an idea of how many books will be in the Viking series and secondly, do you have a name for this series? It seems like all your series have collective names (I.E. The Grail Quest, The Starbuck Chronicles etc.) so I was just wondering if you had a name yet. Thanks for the great books.
