Mr. Cornwell, How can you bear to get up in the morning and look at your face in the mirror? Here is my gripe. I waited for some two years for the paperback edition of “The Pale Horseman,” and once I picked it up I was unable to stop reading it. For two whole days, I was up till 1:00 am, and suddenly I had reached the end. So how long until the paperback edition of “Lords of the North?” I am already suffering withdrawal symptoms. Lucky for you, Sir, that there are many more Bernard Cornwell books. In short, I loved the book. I’ve been a longtime fan, and I look forward to reading the rest of your work. :-) Jeva Singh-Anand
