Mr Cornwell,

I am just reading your “Empty Throne” novel and as always enjoying the saga of Uhtred.

I decided to write, firstly to thank you for the enjoyment from the Uhtred novels but also regarding the name. It was interesting to see on page 1 the range of spellings which reminded me of the chapter on the origins of the Ogle name in the 1904 book “Ogle and Bothel”. It occurred to me you might find the Ogle book interesting.

Regards

John Ogle
