Mr. Cornwell, I have been a fan of yours for years. I have tried endlessly to get my friends to read a book of yours but to no avail. Last week, a friend of mine I have been bugging for 15 years to read one, asked if I had any of your books I could lend him. I asked why and he said he read one the other week and is hooked. He has gone online and is trying to buy everything you have written. I laughed at him and teased him about everything he has been missing for all those years. Then I pulled out The Last Kingdom that my brother-in-law got for me and had you sign for me. Man, was he jealous. Thanks for all the wonderful books. They have inspired me and I am now attempting to write a book of my own. Everyone seems to like the plot and have suggested to make it a series. Maybe I will. Thanks again and keep em coming. Randy
