Dear Sir I recently finished Gallows Thief & I want to thank you for writing such an excellent novel. I enjoyed it immensely! I loved how you portrayed cricket it in the novel & especially how you described some of the rules that have now since changed. ( stump wicket & underarm bowling indeed!) Are you a cricket fan your self? The English are doing quite well against the West Indies at the moment; hopefully they can keep up their form until they meet us. I recently saw King Arthur & apart from the wardrobe, I though it was an awful movie. I feel it did no just to your awesome trilogy. Have you seen it? If so what are your thoughts? Kind regards Michael, Sydney Australia.
