Mr. Cornwell,

I would like to start this message in saying that your trilogy The Warlord Chronicles have inspired me to write my final thesis paper for my undergraduate degree in English on how your story of Arthur is one of the most believable ones written. I am comparing stories throughout history to yours and arguing that The Warlord Chronicles are filled with historical accuracy, and that they represent an Arthur in which readers can relate.
With that being said, I was wondering if you would be able to explain to me your inspiration in writing the trilogy, and which pieces of literature you used in your research. I would love to included your feedback in my paper as a source and I am hoping you have time to provide me with this information.
However, I must admit in addition to me contacting you in order to have information for my paper, I also wanted to have the opportunity to express my thanks for giving me the satisfaction of having an Arthur that is truly great. Your stories are my favorite of all literature I have read about Arthur and it has been a pleasure to meet all of the characters on a personal level. So thank you Mr. Cornwell and I appreciate anything you can give me.

Best Regards,
Kelly Rodak
