Hi Bernard. First many thanks for so many years of great reading.I note you are returning to the American scene for the next book and I look forward to it with eager anticipation.Notwithstanding the previous comment I hope we have not seen the last of Uhtred, last year I revisited Bamburgh Castle and Lindesfarne and last week I visited Sutton Hoo.These two outings have inspired me to re-read the complete set of Uhtred novels.An Essex boy through and through I have a great love of the Arthurian/Saxon period.Please assure me I will not be disappointed.By the by I think Scoundrel was an inspired piece of work,any chance of another such novel. Best wishes Vic Miller Hon sec Clacton Local History Society..
