Hi Bernard, I just wanted to send you a note to thank you for The Burning Land which I’ve just finished. My mum & I are both fans and we take it in turn to buy your books in hardback & then swap with each other when the first is finished, but we both agreed that Sword Song was a little disappointing. However Mum handed over Burning Land very excitedly and I can only but agree with her assessment. It’s a real return to form for the series and a wonderful book – plus I’m working in Winchester at the moment so I’m finding it all particularly resonant!. Azincourt was also really good, and of course the Arthur series is my favourite as I believe it is yours. Your take on the material has completely replaced my mental image of the Arthurian legend. Awesome stuff. Thank you very much for your time, and you books, Best wishes, Martin.
