I just wanted to say thank you for writing these marvelously entertaining stories. I have not been an avid reader of historical fiction in the past, but that is certain to change now that I’ve met Uhtred. All my life I have been a loyal epic fantasy reader, with Martin, Kay, Abercrombie and Bakkur topping my list as the most talented in the field. I can now happily add your name to that list, although your stories are set squarely in the muck and blood and sweat of this world. I am an aspiring writer myself and have struggled to put the finishing touches on my own book. I am now inspired after reading your wonderfully funny, graphic, and humanistic stories to go back to work on my own.
With gratitude
Andy Fitz
