dear Mr Cornwell. I am a sailor so i have a lot of time on my hands to read. I would just like to say that I have read nearly all of your books from the Sharpe stories to the Saxon stories, and out of all of them the ones I find most enjoyable are the Saxon stories. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy reading all the books but for me the Saxon stories stand above the rest. I cannot comment on the grail quest because I am yet to read them, although i have purchased them. i am glad after reading the questions answered page on this website that there are to be more in the series as Uhtred is one of the most incredible characters I have read about. Thank you very much for so many enjoyable books and best wishes with more in the future. Kelvyn Vance
