Hi Bernard.

Just finished 1356 - loved it. Reading the Historical note, you mentioned Joseph of Arimethea. I recently found out that not only is the case for his escape to England very strong, the family descendants, now living in NZ, have documents he carried with him to Glastonbury, which were hidden from the Catholic purge. A friend had them on his desk recently, and verifications etc continue. At least some of the legends surrounding this man are true. Apparently, it was Saul of Tarsus who cast the adrift in the Med.

Hi Bernard

I was lucky enough to be given a copy of 1356 as a present and I'm currently right in the middle of the battle scene. I have to say that it's a fantastic book, right up there with the many others that I own. I have an enormous respect for the way you depict your stories, I have all the Saxon and Hundred Years War books and they're endlessly re-readable.It's hard to know what to say to someone like yourself about how much pleasure you've given, I've no doubt I'd be speechless if I actually met you, but you bring history alive in a way I never thought possible.

Live long and keep writing.

Dear Bernard,

When I was a little boy some 75yrs. ago my dad told always to remember that I  was one of Ida's men.  It was many years later before I realised what he had meant.  I beleive that we may have something in common in that I understand some of my ancestors may have been keepers of Bamburgh. The stories of Uhtred therefore bring back race  memories. Please do not be tool long writing the rest  for at 82 I would like to finish the series.
Your other books are not bad either,

Yours

Bill Turnbull.

Dear Mr. Cornwell,

Nnormally I would not write anyone at all to say thank you for books, movies or what ever. But this time I feel I have to do it. My world is so much more interesting and brighter with characters like Arthur, Uhtred and Thomas of Hookton by my side. I don´t want to bother you with ideas, scripts or wishes of autographs. Just keep on writing stories about ancient Britain and keep that time alive. I have read the Warlord Chronicles at least 13 times. So thank you very much.
Sincerely,

Sebastian Knoell from Germany

Dear Mr Cornwell!
I'm one of many your fans and I'd like to wish you happy New Year!
Now I,m reading Azincourt, it's great! Many thanks for your books!
Best regards,
Andrey

After reading and loving The Fort in its first portuguese edition, I am now engaged in Azincourt - and also bought Warlord Chronicles, Stonehenge and Grail Quest, all brazilian editions - and, so far, it is another masterpiece. Congratulations, and I wish you can come to Brazil some time, your books are definitely liked here.

Dear Mr. Cornwell,

I have a great affinity with England and everything English. So much so that I spent about 10 years studying, working and generally living there.

10 years ago I read your Warlord Chronicles and I loved them.

Earlier this year, as I was leaving the UK I stumbled upon "The Pale Horseman" in a 2nd hand bookshop. I very much enjoy historical novels and simply "inhaled" your book. I was really disappointed to find out it was part of a series. Buying English books in Germany is fairly expensive and so I was happy when I found "The Last Kingdom" at WHSmith at Gatwick when I came over to visit friends a couple of weeks ago.
Upon my return to Germany I went onto Amazon.co.uk and bought all the books in the series and read one each week until Christmas.
Again, I thought this was it... but, alas, the storyline isn't complete yet.

I love your writing and I can't wait for the next instalment in the series to be published.

Very best regards,
Martin

Have read your books over many years and yes I too am waiting for a new Starbuck adventure but in the meantime am happy to read anything you publish. Richard Sharpe was my introduction to you and when I started reading them the local library always had the next one in the series waiting for me librarians are real heroes.Time has moved on and Uhtred waits for me on my kindle. So many thanks for the great stories and kindest regards to you and yours.

I just wanted to write and say thanks for all of your great works. About 8 years ago I would not read a book if someone paid me. I stumbled onto a book on CD at the library titled Sword Song. I picked it up for a long trip I had planned and was totally engulfed with the story. I have now read most of your books and try to read a couple of books from different authors a month. Sounds funny but it really has changed me in a good way. Thanks again. Can't wait for the next Uhtred adventure.
