Mr Cornwell,

as a Charleston resident, happy to see you are a part time resident. I first saw Charleston many years ago from the deck of a ship and have called it home ever since. Really no place in the States like it. As a Navy Officer I first found Sharpe’s Gold in one of our training ship’s library and that started my interest in your books. One of my CO’s had given me Rifleman Dodd a few years before so the Sharpe’s series has been a great addition to my reading. I have read all of your books except 1356, which is next on my list, but I can’t wait for your next effort. I really love the Uhtred series and, interestingly enough, my wife and I travelled from Winchester to Skye with a stop at Bamburgh Castle on our honeymoon before the first book came out. We endured 40 kt gusts walking up the ramparts, really a wild place. It was a great trip!  I hope that you will have a book signing in Charleston for the next in the series. My military commitments involve rotations to Afghanistan and a lot of time away from my family due to the requisite training involved, but I will send my wife if you promote the book in Charleston and I can’t attend. Anyway, wanted to take a minute and let you know how much I enjoy your work. Thanks again…..

Scott Tetrick
