Dear Mr. Cornwell-
Thank you for all the wonderful stories you have told over the years.  This question pertains to my favorite series, the Saxon Tales.  Did you allow History Channel to create a scripted series based on the stories?  And, if so, will we see Uhtred’s story told through this vehicle, or will the story follow Ragnar?  I have always thought the chapter ‘The Red Ship’ would make for excellent cinema!
Warm Regards-

Hi Bernard.

So will you continue the story of Uhtred?  Just kidding I can’t wait for the seventh book.  If it takes five more years I’m sure the wait will be worth it.  I was just watching the first episode of Vikings which is a series shows they just started on the History channel.  As I was watching I couldn’t help but think what you thought about the show?  Is it something that you watch?  I personally was not ecstatic about first episode but enjoy anything about Vikings.  I have been a big fan of the Saxon Chronicles.  As I watched the Viking show I also thought about the Saxon Chronicles being made into a video.  Is this something you have considered?  Maybe this question is to soon as you are still working on the seventh book.  I have such a high standard of the Uhtred story that I don’t know what director or actor playing Uhtred could give is justice.  I guess most fans of a book are disappointed when the story is portrayed in a video format.  Well anyways hope your
doing well.

I may be pre-empting a copyright infringement law suit on your part, but I’m curious about what you thought about the Viking Series on The History Channel.  The main character’s name is Ragnar, and there is an Aethelstan as well.
Truly, I looked to see if you had been involved in the writing or if it was an adaptation of some kind.
I am no expert on the era and your books are my only significant reference, but there are some similarities and, if I may hazard, some contradictory details when compared to your Saxon Chronicles.
Did you see the series yet, and what did you think

Mr. Cornwell,
I read all your Warrior Chronicles/Saxon Stories in the last couples months and  I watched the first episode of “Vikings” on the history channel. I found it interesting how much I learned from your series of books with Uhtred as it pertained to his “viking” up bringing, ex. Valhalla, Odin, etc. Did you get a chance to watch Vikings? If so, Your take?
