Hello, I know that this won´t be the first nor the last mail that says this but I really like the Arthur Books. I´m from the Czech Republic and if I´m not mistaken, the Warlord Chronicles was the first work of BC published in Czech, the stories about Sharpe have been published here only recently. I read other books about king Arthur including Thomas Malory´s (well, not every description of battles) but since I have read the Warlord Chronicles my view on this subject changed. These stories are not a fantasy books, for me they are true, it is something I can believe. When I first read it I imagined Derfel as Sean Bean before I knew that he played this character in the movies (I admit that it was when Lord of the Rings came in cinemas). These books change the fantasy and myths into reality just as Colleen McCullough in her stories changed ancient Romans in living and feeling characters. I´m not good at writing fan letters but I just wanted to express my feelings. Thank you and please forgive me the mistakes I made. Jarmila
