Dear Bernard After reading that your doing another book on Thomas of Hookton.I wondered if you had ever thought of going even further back and considered a prequel with his father. The man was dead in the first few pages of Harlequin but there still seems so much more to say about him. While with Nick Hook and his voices what would he make of Joan of Arc and hers and what would they make of each other if they met ? Yours sincerely Geraint

P.S Next year is the anniversary of the war of 1812 the British troops in Canada like the troops in Burma in WW2 called themselves the Forgotten Soldiers and I wondered if you could ever be persuaded to write about even 1 of there battles. After all you even had Fredrickson sent over there.
