Dear Mr Cornwell
Thank you for yet another brilliant book about ,my favorite,Uhtred. I have just finished it ( 07.30am!!) As a resident of Wimborne I was very interested to read the bit about Aethelwold fleeing to the town. I was surprised that Uhtred could see into the town from Badbury Rings though. I have been to the rings many times ( not recently) and do not think you can see Wimborne from there. I realise that the lay of the land could have been very different then but would be interested to hear your comments about this. We did meet several years ago at the tank museum when you did a talk there. You said at the time you liked to visit the battle sites before writing about them. I know Badbury Rings was not a battle site but did you go there? It makes me want to go there again and check it out!! Thankyou yet again for another great read.
Wyrd bid ful araed
