Mr. Cornwell,

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for writing your latest addition to your Sharpe series.  I started reading this series as a teenager having first watched BBC’s renditions on television featuring Sean Bean.  Your books encouraged a life long love of military history, and we’re the spark in starting my own odyssey through the ranks of the US Navy (that lasted a quarter century).  Reading the renewed adventures of Sharpe and Harper have taken me on a stroll through my own memories as well.  Thank you, Sir, for each of your superb books; and particularly your latest.  I pray there might be more in this series.

Best Wishes,

“Bishop” O.
