Dear Mr. Cornwell,

I have a specific question about one of your Uhtred books. I think Uhtred said that they call the morning star “Aerendil.” I don’t remember which book because I listened to them last year but I would guess 7 or 8. Is this a nod to JRR Tolkien? I have searched online and as far as I can tell, the morning Star is only called Aerendil in Tolkien’s Middle Earth. I know he based his creations largely on his studies of the Dark Age Saxons so maybe it was really called that. Thank you for your time.
