Dear Mr Cornwell;

2017 has been the year of Bernard Cornwall and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading all your Lost Kingdom series, watching the Sharpe series on DVD, and I’m presently reading Excalibur.

My question is – Are you aware of the historical research of both Alan Wilson and Baram Blackett? Their research based on the Welsh historical records reveal King Arthur II was a real historical figure, son of King Mergic, son of King Tewrig. I believe you made the same mistake as Geoffrey of Monmouth by grouping the two King Arthur’s into one.

Would you please take only 10 minutes to check out a blog I’ve written on the subject.

Many thanks, and I look forward to reading as many of your books in 2018 as I’ve read in 2017.

Yours sincerely,

Matt Taylor
