Dear Bernard, Ive been reading your books for about 12 years now ever since my dad gave me a very battered copy of Sharpes Enemy to read inbetween sitting my GCSEs. Ive now pretty much read everything youve written my favorites being The Starbuck Chronicles, The Grail Quest and more recently The Saxon Series, Uhtred is by far my most favoite fictional charactor ever save maybe Lee Childs Jack Reacher maybe because they share some similar qualities. Anyway I would just like to say I cant wait for the next saxon book and this my sound abit morbid but every now and agian I find myself thinking that I hope you stay fit, healthy and well for a long time in to the future so that you can keep writting all theses great stories for us, I definatly want to know the end of Uhtred’s story. I would also like to say that I think its great that you answer pretty much everyones questions on here, I normally log on every couple of days to see what other readers have to say and your replys always seem very up to date, with all your writting where do you find the time? I hope that I havent taken up too much of your time. Heather
