Dear Mr.Cornwell.
A while ago you pointed me in the direction of a source of information on Saxon Britain. I found the book to be a tremendous help and wished to thank you for the assistance, and would also like to recommend, to anybody else wishing to follow the same lines, “The anglo-saxons at war” by Paul Hill. It’s information about Saxon military structure is very well informed and a great source of info.
I’ve just finished reading Heretic again, readying myself to go dig into 1356, and found myself stuck with a niggling question. Sir Guillaume was undoubtedly my favourite character in that series. What has really plagued my mind was why his death was a vague passing mention. It might just be me, but I just felt he deserved a better end than a single sentence. The Thomas Hookton series is a phenomenal story, and I hope I don’t seem to be detracting your excellent story telling skills with that note.
Regards,
Mike.
