Dear Mr. Cornwell,
I have been reading your books since my uncle introduced me to “The Archer’s Tale” in 2005.  Although I got a late start, I can honestly say that I’ve read every book that you have published (including the few that you co-wrote).  I became engrossed in each novel and series from the Sharpe series to Azincourt and look forward reading your books now as soon as they are published.  In fact, I order them from the UK because I’m too impatient to wait for the U.S. release dates.  I’m sure you routinely hear how fantastic your books are to read (which is entirely true), but I just wanted to compliment you on 1356.  I think it may be my favorite book that you have written thus far.  I never thought that Thomas of Hookton would be back, but I’m so pleased that you decided to revisit the character.  Anyways, thank you so much for all of your work.  I am unable articulate in writing just how much I’ve enjoyed reading it and look forward to whatever you have in store next.

Sincerely,
Benjamin Reed
