I love your books! I am bestselling author of non-fiction in Brazil, but don’t have the knack for writing fiction. Your historical fiction is fantastic, and I’ve read virtually every book you’ve ever published.
My comment though is this: Uhtred was a huge man in the books, and a fantastic warrior, a great fighter. In the movies, they’ve made him into a small guy, who is only a fair fighter. Problem is that Uhtred’s demeanor is based on being an incredible warrior, and huge guy. So this has really messed up the TV series, I am deeply frustrated. This is not the same Uhtred from the books. The Uhtred arrogance only works when he’s one of the 2 or 3 best fighters in England. Now as just a normal guy, and mediocre fighter in the TV series, his behavior makes no sense at all. Why did you let them do this?
