Dear Bernard,

I’ve just read your latest book Sharpe’s Assassin. As with all your books I can’t put them down. Did Captain Burrell exist? I was crying with laughter when Harper was told not to buy a monkey and he turns up with one. Will  Sharpe appear again ?. Any news of  the Starbuck chronicles. I read somewhere that an American Producer was making a series for Television. I hope that it will appear in UK or be available on DVD. please keep up your great work and have a nice day.

Many thanks

Colin Burrell
