Dear Mr. Cornwell, I have been an avid fan of your books since I first “met” you through Wildtrack many years ago. As an ex-Army man I felt that the Sharpe series had been written just for me, contrasting what I felt to be my weaknesses with all his good points: bravery, leadership and brilliant intuition! I have just this morning finished The Burning Land which I have been saving and looking forward to for months, I loved it, and of course; it kept me awake late at night until it was read! Thank you once again for the many hours of reading pleasure you have given me. Looking forward to Death of Kings. My very best wishes for your future. Michael D. Carn
