I’m a 23 year old law student in Birmingham, uk and unfortunately have spent the begining of this year reading the Sharpe novels instead of doing my work which means that I have received a flurry of scowles from my partner. I have only read the first five so this question is probably a little premature but here goes. I thought Trafalgar gave Sharpe an exciting new scenario for battle and wondered if you were ever tempted to create a series dedicated to sea battles, I would love to read about Chase, Collier, Clouter and Hopper on other adventures. Thank you very much for filling my study leave with excitment and adventure. Lewis.

Ahoy Mr. Cornwell, I’ve been a fan of your work for a number of years now! I’ve enjoyed reading and watching all of the Sharpe books and movies and own them all. I’m so glad that you continue to “fill in the blanks” of the series with new books now and then. I just finished up the last Grail book and I’m glad that I figured out where the Grail was hidden. My question to you is this:Do you have any plans for a side series of books for Captain Chase from Sharpes Trafalgar and Sharpes Prey? Quite a few people in my book circle are into the “nautical fiction” genre and we would all love to see Chase have his own set of adventures. Thank you for sharing your great talent of writing with all of us. K Thompson
