Dear Mr. Bernard Cornwell. I’m a historically related/based fiction literature junkie. Especially I swallow up everything I find, related to early Nordic history. I’m Danish myself and I have read many books taking place in the period 800 – 900 ac. But most of them are written by Scandinavian writers and primary takes place in Scandinavia. I have been searching like a bee after nectar, for books with a storyline based on the “vikings” expansions and history outside Scandinavia. And I must say Mr.. Cornwell that when I found your books about Uhtred, they hit me like a blessing coming from all of the Gods, at the same time. Thank you so so much, for writing and telling the stories that you do. I can’t…. wait to start reading the rest of your books. You make my life richer. Greetings Jon Andersen
