Hi Bernard, I am sorry ahead of time for my typing and grammar. But I had to let you know. I am a machinist by trade in Lansing Michigan. Will be 55 years young have never read a complete book since, THE CAT AND THE HAT. I had an urge to read something a couple of winters ago. I asked at my local book store if there was any stories of the vikings thinking this may hold my interest for a page or two. Well, they suggested, THE LAST KINGDOM. I read it, (cover to cover) read the rest of the series and while waiting for THE BURNING LAND read the GRAIL QUEST series. I just finished BURNING LAND and I sure hope there is more in this series, and soon. It is hard for me to describe how I feel. First being a much better reader. Also never really understanding what people saw in relaxing in peace and quiet with a good book. Now I do. I thank you. Hope this note finds you doing well. your friend Mike
