Hey sir,

I realize that this is something that you hear quite often. However, I am a huge fan of your books. I started with the saxon tales when I was in middle school, and have read each book in the series and am eagerly awaiting my copy of Warriors of the Storm (the US release not being till January), I have enjoyed your grailquest series (Guy Vexille is a personal favorite villain of your series’) and I consider your Warlord Chronicles of Arthur to be one of, if not the best re-imagining of Arthurian Lore and your book Enemy of God from that series is probably my one of my favorite books of all time (I have read it 4 or 5 times). Anyways, with that out of the way, I just want to ask, have you ever been interesting in doing what you did for Arthur for other mythological histories? I personally would love to see your take on the Trojan war and see how you would handle the classic heroes. I realize it might be a super saturated market for that, but I think a Cornwellian take mythology’s equivalent to a world war would be really cool. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to read my questions and ranting. I know you probably get countless of these emails a day, so the fact that you take your time to this for us fans is very awesome of you. (also do you know off hand if you will be in Northern Virginia anytime soon for talks? I have a few books I would like to have signed)
