Dear Mr. Cornwell, Like so many others, I wanted to write and tell you how much I enjoy your writing. I have read the Grail Quest series and am halfway through the Starbuck Chronicles and have become thouroughly immersed both. Also greatly enjoyed The Last Kingdom. You are truly a master at mixing historical fact with engrossing, believeable, fiction. I envy you the hours and hours you must spend doing the research. Your chosen periods are fascinating. Someday, when I have far more time to spare I will tackle the Sharpe series, but I know once I start, I will have to tear through them all. Many thanks for your wonderful books. -John
