Hello Mr. Cornwell,
I just wanted to drop you a line or two to let you know how much I enjoyed both your Saxon Tales and the Arthur Books. To be honest, I had not heard of you or your work, I suppose because I generally read older stuff, that is, a lot of pulp fiction, as well as some historical fiction. But, on reading an excerpt from the first Saxon book, I was hooked! I read the ten books of the series and loved them all. Then, I read the Arthur books—I’ve always loved stories about “King” Arthur, the more historically accurate the better, and about those times in general. Your books fulfilled my every hope and expectation for a definitive look at Arthur and his fellow Britons, Saxons and Gaels of the 5th and 6th centuries. And, you sure had me fooled about Derfel’s hand! What a terrific trilogy! I look forward to reading more and more of your work. Thank you!
Yours Truly,
Clayton Hinkle,
