I drive A LOT. I listened to The Last Kingdom many years ago and fell in love with medieval historical fiction at that point. I'm an American of either English or Welsh decent and I feel that I'm reading about my ancestors. Now that Uhtred has captured Bebbanburg, good for him but BAD FOR ME! I'm worried that it's now over. Please keep them coming! I know he has more to tell!!

 

By the way, Agincourt was a masterpiece. Thanks for that gift too!

A friend introduced me to the Sharpe Series 20 years ago and I became a big fan. I think your presentation of history is exceptional. I'm in the process of re-reading them and am loving every minute.

 

I think the Warlord series is the best. When I finished The Winter King I called my friend up and said that that was the King Arthur book I've been wanting for forty years. I've since given a half a dozen sets away to share my joy.

 

Again, thanks. Your books mean a lot to me.

Bernard,

 

When I retired I was excited to find the Outlander Books by Diana Gabaldon. I read everyone of them. After that I looked for another author. I found you and your wonderful books at Barnes/Noble.That was my lucky day.I devoured the Saxon Tales/Last Kingdom series.  I was immersed in your books. They were so real.I also read Warlord Chronicles. Agincourt & 1356 came next. I think the Sharpes list will be next.

I don't really have any questions at the present.  All the questions have been previously answered on this website.

I'm looking forward to future books because now you are the only author I prefer to read.

The Last Kingdom TV series was exceptional.

 

Thank you so very much for sharing your gift of writing with all of us.

 

Sincerely,

Linda

I found a few of the Saxon Stories books while shopping and thought I'd give them a try. I started the series while I was in Afghanistan and was absolutely hooked. I had the entirety of the series sent to me immediately after starting the first one. I just recently finished The Flame Bearer and was of course blown away yet again. The series has been an amazing read and I cannot wait for the next one. You've done an awesome job so far so please, keep up the good work!

Mr. Cornwell,

I wanted to write to you in appreciation of your Sharpe Series.  You see,  I serve as an Infantryman in the United States Army.  More specifically as a member of a Reconnaissance Team.  In the long hours I spent sitting in my truck with a radio hand mic next to me ear.  I'd drift away with a headphone in the other.  Listening to your novels.  I gained a sense of pride in my  chosen profession that I had been missing.  Too often we forget the dark places soldiers can drift into.  I had drifted into one of those places.  Your novels helped me drift out of it.  I just wanted to say thank you. I hope to Sharpe back at it.

Your fan,

Dear Mr Cornwell

I just wanted to thank you for many hours of reading pleasure. I couldn't help feeling a bit sad as I bought The Flame Bearer from my local bookshop, as I realized I was coming to the end of your marvellous Uhtred series. I hope there will be more to follow.

With best wishes

I am writing only to express my eternal appreciation for you books.  I have read 99% of your books and will surely reach 100%.  I love the characters, and the history.  You books have become a part of me and the characters I will know my life.  Thanks!  This is just a note to express my appreciation...

One of the finest characters ever. I have also ready your Waterloo history just before visiting the battlefield itself.

I am a huge fan of you, Wilbur Smith, Daniel Silva and Nelson Demille. Whenever any of you publish I rush to the book store.

I was fortunate enough to interview you two times when you visited Toronto in the mid 80's after launching your Sharpe series. I too can't wait for you to go back to the Civil War but must have another Uhtred before then.

Cheers.  oh, and thank you.

Dear Mr. Cornwell,

I write from Italy and only recently I started reading his books; I was looking for the texts concerning the history of King Arthur that has fascinated me since I was little (now I'm 50 years old!) and I am happy to have discovered the great Bernard Cornwell !!!!

I wanted to write to compliment him, in the meantime continuing to read .....

... I hope I have written well in English, forgive me but I'm using Google translator!

Good morning, sir!

I know you're sick to the back teeth of this particular subject being constantly regurgitated, but if and when you decide on bringing Nathaniel back, please, please, please let me be the first to know...

We all live in hope that his imminent return will be sooner rather than later!!

All the very best,
