Dear Mr. Bernard Cornwell, OBE
Thank you. Thank you for bringing your brilliance and artistry into my life. I look forward to many years of enjoying and re-discovering the world for the first time through your stories.
My accidental journey to our introduction happened at a used bookstore in my hometown. I found a copy of The Last Kingdom, sat down with a few other titles and flipped through the pages. Don’t ask me what the other books were, because I was lost in yours from page one.
Since that day I have devoured the following five novels with the next one ready to read. Being a father of a 13-year-old boy, this adventure as awaken a revived passion in our world history, which I have been sharing with him. As my son matures, I try to teach him to respect and appreciate the past along with the many crossroads we have taken. I also pull lessons to relate about honor, loyalty and the courage to stand up for your beliefs.
Thank you for being apart of my life and my tapestry.
Sincerely,
Gary Suskind
