Amazon sent my copy to the USA on Thursday.  Tried hard not to read it all in one session, but couldn't put it down. A very satisfying read. Finished it Saturday night. Marvelous action as usual.  It will join the rest of your books in a dedicated bookcase. I almost have them all hardbound first editions, except for Sharpe's Gold, and I had to settle for paperback!

Many thanks.  We enjoyed the Last Kingdom TV series too.

All the best,

Barry Anderson

 

My name is Marcela Antochio, I'm 29 years old, I am Brazilian and I met you when I was still in college in 2008. The first book I read was The Winter King of King Arthur trilogy. I do not know how to express all my appreciation and thanks to the universe that his books carry me. His way of writing, attention to detail and emotion that moves in every word, every line written. Thank you for making my full days!

 

Dear Mr. Cornwell,

I quite accidentally stumbled upon your books when looking for a new author to read and have never been disappointed by your stories.  I was a history major in college and found myself drawn to a number of historical fiction writers, reading many of your colleagues' stories before finding your Last Kingdom Series.  I am extremely grateful I did find it because I find the character of Uhtred to be incredibly engaging, dynamic and nuanced.  I look forward to every publication and have even gone so far as to order from the U.K. when I have not wanted to wait for the U.S. publication date.  In closing, thank you again for providing me with hours upon hours of enjoyment.  I wish you nothing but the best in life and look forward to reading the entirety of all your series.

Sincerely,

Adam Dolan

Hello, Mr. Cornwell.

First of all, I'd like to apoligize if I'm not adressing you properly, not really a native english speaker. Either way, me and some of my friends wanted to thank you, you had a massive influence in our development as professionals, I'm beggining my career as a game story writer almost solely based on the beauty of your story telling, and many similar stories can be told by my friends.

Thank you a lot, your writing is wonderful and inspiring!

Wellington Lecture -

With the usual crush at the end of such a lecture I didn't get an opportunity to personally thank you. I feel compelled to send a heartfelt thankyou for the lecture you gave last night. I read the Sharpe books as they were first released into my local library (I am 47 now so was quite young at the time!) and, unique to any other book I have ever read, have reread the entire series at least twice. I was really looking forward to hear you talk and I thought that it was a fantastic event and so wasn't disappointed.

Kind regards,

Andrew Whitehead

Hello Bernard,

Just a quick hello from a huge fan of your Last Kingdom series. I really enjoy how you capture the realism and harshness of the times for example the value placed on mail armor highlighting the importance of very limited resources. Uhtred is, as David Gemmell once wrote, a  man to walk mountains with. Hope to see you at a book signing next time you are in Liverpool,

Dave.

Have just finished reading The Flame Bearer - as gripping a read as ever...however, despite all the pleasure I have had from the Uhtred series I think this would have been a good place to stop. I was somehow disappointed to read that his story is unfinished - just don't ask me why!!

"This all sounds a bit unfriendly......"

Kind regards,

Just a short E to let you know how much I enjoyed the book 'The Flame Bearer'...... I come from Oxfordshire and can relate to so many of the places in your books. Thanks for so many great reads, I have read the Sharpe series and all the Uhtred books and enjoyed them all. Thanks again.

Just wanted to say thanks for the worlds you have created and the stories you set out so well. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading them all over the past decade.
