Hello! I am reading War of the Wolf at the moment and just read the exchange where Ieremias recommends Uhtred take small horns to attack Skoll in imitation of Joshua’s attack on Jericho, and Uhtred’s thought response is “I preferred to rely on ladders instead”.

I seriously laughed out loud at this – I have been an active Christian all my life but have been through a lot of church drama/witnessed too many Christians hold power and politics above loving their neighbors, so all of Uhtred’s disparaging comments about the church are hilarious to me.

So that’s it. Thank you for your excellent writing! If you ever find yourself in NYC with an hour to kill and you happen to want to spend it with a complete stranger, contact me and I’ll buy you a scotch.

With wishes of continued success to you,

Alex.
