I just wanted to tell you that while I enjoy your stories immensely, I find with almost every book that the nearer I come to the end the more keenly I anticipate the historical endnote. So much so that I often eye the diminishing pages in my right hand jealously, begrudging every one that the story takes from the endnote. I don’t know if you find writing them to be pleasurable or a necessary task; they are central to my delight in your books. Thank you.
Joe
