Mr. Cornwell, I have been reading your Richard Sharpe series and enjoying them very much. I am about to finish “Sharpe’s Sword” which so far is my favorite. The reader for the Library of Congress has done a wonderful job. You should have access to those recordings. I think you would enjoy them. No ideas.., no suggestions… I like Teresa. I love Patrick Harper and I think the bond you have created between Harper and Sharpe is wonderful. You describe things very well. I almost feel as though I could visit those old battlefields and walk around them without help. You are a great writer and you may get tired of hearing this but KEEP WRITING. I have 2 daughters and your books provide me with a lot of escape and believe it or not comfort when stress from being a single parent becomes more difficult than I would like. I am impatiently waiting the next book in the mail and sadly I will have to read something else in the meantime – darn! Sincerely yours, Norma E. McMillen
