Dear Sir, I finally got through a marathon read of Sharpe -not all the books, just Rifles through Waterloo, in order, and I am exhausted and thrilled. Just wanted to say thank you for such great reads. I had to tell you that the three later books just gave me a heartache. Hogan’s death, the falling out with Sweet William, and just about anything about Waterloo… Did you really, really, have to kill Hogan? Are we ever going to see Sharpe reunited with his old friend Frederickson? (I hope so!) Also, any plans for Sharpe in the big screen? No offense to the BBC, but it’s hard to picture Waterloo with a few extras, when we were supposed to see thousands of men. Is it hard for you to watch the BBC series? I would assume that it would be hard to have your characters twisted in story lines you didn’t create or may not agree with. I apologize for the mindless ranting. Thank you for being so accessible. Dan
