Dear Mr Cornwell I have very recently returned from a period of extended travelling in which I spent many hours on trains, buses and planes, or simply ending a day of sightseeing, reading your fascinating books. I especially enjoyed the Warlord, Saxon and Sharpe series. Just a quick question – have you ever considered writing about the Norse discovery of North America in the 11th century? There is so much we don’t know about this period, it’s practically begging to be fictionalised and I can’t imagine anyone better than you.
