I stumbled onto Archer’s Tale last week and, as of today, I’ve read it, Vagabond, Heretic, and Gallow’s Thief. Except for the fact that I’m pretty sure this is 2004 and that Thomas of Hookton is a creature of your imagination, I would almost swear that I fought with him – I could smell the cannon sulphur, hear the hoofbeats, and taste the ale. Your writing is wonderful. Though Thomas has found the Grail, I hope the series doesn’t end now. I would also love to see Rider Sandman turned into a series character. We don’t get much cricket coverage here in the States, so the cricket in Gallows Thief was much appreciated and enjoyed. I wish you the very best, and I thank you for providing me with such joy.
