Hi! This is really just a fan-mail i guess. I am a 20 year old man from Norway, who likes to read, and therefore drop in at the bookstore from time to time. The local bookstore did have an offer on english-lingual books (3 for 2) and it was merely fate that made me pick ‘The winter king’, ‘The enemy of god’ and ‘Excalibur’. I had never heard of you before, and am now glad I picked those books. I read through them all and became mesmerized. I just needed more and therefore bought the 4 books of ‘The Saxon Stories’. I guess it was fate than linked me to your treasures. Wyrd bið ful ãræd. You’re now my favourite writer. (Not entirely true, I cannot decide whether I favor you or John Ronald Reuel Tolkien the most, but you are at least sharing the gold medal.) This was more of a reading than I intended it to be, but I just want you to keep writing great novels, and I will keep buying them. (Believe I will start on the ‘The Grail Quest’ now, while waiting for a follow-up after ‘Sword Song’. Yours truly Martin Seglen Baadshaug P.S. I do favor Lord Derfel Cadarn over Lord Uhtred of Bebbanburg. P.P.S. You have inspired me into dreaming of writing a novelle of my own.
