Auto Draft

Hi Mr Cornwell –

I wanted to thank you for writing the Last Kingdom series of novels.  They are crackers and Uhtred (and his son Uhtred) are great characters.  In your writing on the Contact page, you said that you don’t want ideas for books but here is something that I think that you are up to.  The best novel that I have read about Vikings was/is The Long Ships by the late Franz Bengtsson. There has always been a follow up book meant for this tome; especially what happens to Orm’s sons and Cnut the Great.. Once I had a dream to write such a book but, alas, don’t have the skills that you have. You are going to be flat out with novels that open the way for Uhtred junior (I hope so anyway).  Maybe you can suggest to other aspiring authors to give The Long Ships sequel a go.  It is terrific that you are writing your novels and I wish you all the best of fortune and good health.  I can’t wait to read the next instalment!

Your sincerely

Andrew
