Hi BC,
Firstly I’d like to thank you for your brilliant novels – I’m a huge fan, I haven’t read all of them yet, but I have read the Saxon stories, Azincourt and started the Hook series. All of which I thoroughly enjoyed and can’t put down. I have recommended your books to several friends and they too have become addicts of your work.
I can’t emphasise how much I love your character Uhtred. I know he is a fictional character in a non-fictional world, but these books have made me extremely interested in the Danes/Vikings and English history. I am from Australia, yet my heritage is English. I have recently travelled from Oz to England to celebrate my Grandmother’s 100th birthday, and during my visit have been busy seeing historic places and events, one of which being the recent Vikings Exhibition at the British Museum. Thanks to you, I have become a history fanatic!
Because of the Saxon stories I took great interest in the recent television series Vikings (which I also thoroughly enjoyed yet it has had mixed reviews) and was wondering if you had seen it and what your thoughts are on it?
I am anxiously awaiting the next, possibly last, book about Uhtred and whether he regains Bebbanburg.
Cheers,
James Parker
