Greetings from Vancouver, Canada! I just finished reading your “Warlord Chronicles” trilogy (The Winter King, Enemy of God, Excalibur) and it was one of the very few times an author has drawn me so deeply into a story that I didn’t want it to end. In fact I felt as if I had to bid a sad good-bye to a group of friends (and fiends) I’ll never see again. I loved the way you de-romanticized the myths surrounding Arthur with realistically flawed characters and rather odious accounts of everyday life in 5th century Britain, yet at the same time delivered a 1,500 page saga filled with heroes and despots, love and war, and just the right touch of magic to place your tome comfortably between historical fiction and earthbound fantasy. I’m still replaying those final moments of “Excalibur” in my head. You have a remarkable gift for teleporting readers to a different time and place with descriptive language that appeals to all five senses, thank-you for sharing that gift with the rest of us. And just to let you know, I was so impressed with this introduction to your work that I went out and bought “Stonehenge” as well as the entire “Last Kingdom” series.
