Hi Mr Cornwell. I don’t normally do fan letters, but this is maybe a bit different. I’d like to thank you for a really enjoyable holiday in Northumberland. I took the first two Uhtred books and read them out loud to my wife on the way up (she drives, I don’t – somewhere you said ‘marry wisely :) ). This in itself was fun and I noticed things I hadn’t when I read them first time. Despite the fact that it siled down with rain the day we spent at Bamburgh, exploring the coast was one of the best breaks we’ve had for ages. Not cheap, but worth every penny. Go, Uhtred, Go! regards Andy A
