Mr. Cornwell: Just wanted to drop you a quick line to let you know how much I am enjoying reading your novels. I was casting about for some good historical fiction (having read the Sharra novels) and a colleague of my wife’s (she is a schoolteacher) recommended the Starbuck series (since I am a Civil War enthusiast). I loved them and hunger for more! As I see many of your fans do! I read half of Agincourt then made the mistake of starting the Saxon Stories. Wow! What a character. I think Uhtred is one of the most compelling characters I have ever come across. A fantastically flawed hero and anti-hero at the same time. I am well into the third installment and can’t wait to see what happens. My biggest hope is that some movie producer (Ridley Scott?) will read these books and realize the gold in them. I will continue to enjoy all of your novels and pray that you live and write for MANY years to come. Thanks again for blessing so many! Tom Owens Bowie, MD
