Dear Mr. Cornwell, to cut myself short – I love your work. I am most probably your most ardent german fan. The german translations of your books are rubbish by the way – sometimes whole sentences are oliberated and in the german language they loose a lot of their atmosphere and appeal. Anyway – these are dark times for me, I own and have read everything you have written so far. As it seems there is nothing new coming up, nothing to look forward to…please hurry Mr. Cornwell, let Sharpe march again, or let Uthred bash in some Danish or Saxon heads, what happened to the heroes of “Gallows thief” ? I would even be happy about some news on Starbuck – ANYTHING – Life without your stories is only half the fun. Herzliche Grüße ! Rob
