Hi, Bernard thanks for the endless hours of pleasure you have given me. I have sat on the Saxon books waiting for Sword Song to come out before I started them and have finished the first two in a fortnight. Being from Yorkshire but exiled in Readingum they are of particular interest. Near the end of the Last Kingdom there is a reference to ‘Arthur’s shield wall’, was this subliminal advertising for the Warlord chronicles or simply a printing error. Either way it didn’t spoil my enjoyment. Thanks again and I look forward to your next book. Gavin
