Good afternoon Mr Cornwell. My comments may seem odd but here goes nothing. At the end of the 3rd Saxon/Danes book, our hero had a horse called Witnere (forgive me if this isn’t quite right in terms of spelling etc but I don’t have the book in front of me). In the 4th book, he somehow now had a horse called Smocca. This horse changed to Smoka (same horse, different spelling) in the 5th book. Have I imagined all this (in which case there is no hope for me)? If not, the eternal question springs to mind – why the changes? I love your writing and hope you never retire! I think I must have read every book you have ever written. That last part sounds dreadfully gushing so I’ll sign off now to spare you further embarrassment. Regards, D
