Sir: I have just finished “Pale Horseman,” which I enjoyed immensely. Over the past six years I have read all of Sharpe’s, Starbuck, Grail Quest, the Saxons, the thrillers, Stonehenge, and nearly all of your other novels. I have always been an avid reader of history, but your novels have truly brought history to life for me and increased my interest and appreciation for that subject. By the way, I was introduced to your work via the Sharpe’s episodes that appeared on PBS. My only quarrel with you is that now, knowing that the next Saxon book will be out in the UK three months before it will be sold in the USA, I’m going to have to make a trip to London in June! Keep up the great work and thanks for the many hours of entertainment and enlightenment. Mark Anderson Sacramento, CA
