Dear Mr.Cornwell,

I just wanted to let you know that, being a Viking and early medieval history buff and re-enactor, I love your "Saxon stories" books.
I especially like the total historical accuracy blended with the addictive drama of the books.
So I'm just letting you know that our man Uhtred's the most beloved book-character that I know-I hope he'll have to draw Serpent-breath some more....
Sincerely,
Erik Van Genechten,

I purchased my first Sharpe book in 89 and you have kept me entertained, educated and thirsty for knowledge since. I'm a 'frustrated military historian' and look forward to each Historical Note as much as the story itself and I'm launched on my own literature search.
Your portrayal of a soldiers daily routine, drill, his weapon and kit maintenance are so vivid in my minds' eye that it was very easy to swap pipe-clay for cam cream,SLR for muzzle loading rifle and gun-pit for battlements, My uncle was one of the paras that had to punch through to the Ox&Bucks on now Pegasus Bridge. You would have enjoyed his description of the dawns beauty that day, it's changing colour,sounds and smells. The only mention of the day's purpose was the uplifting sight of a sky filling with chutes & gliders.
As a former sapper with the RAE Maj Hogan CRE is naturally a favourite among all of your wonderful characters. Please keep the great reads coming and thank you.for many a page-turning hour.
Cheers

Hello Mr. Cornwell,

I'm a german reader of your books and really enjoyed reading Death of Kings. I've still no idea how you'll get to the situation mentioned in the first book but well :) - I think you'll surprise me.
The reason for this mail is the german edition of the books. They are full of mistakes and I think you should really have a word with you publisher. It's not that grave but it's not very flattering to you having that much work with writing the books and they aren't translating it in a correct way... sometimes there are parts comparable with google translation. It's not the first time I noticed this in "death of kings" it's also in the former books of this series.

I hope I don't crash your feed with this, just wanted to help you improving your offer a tiny bit :)

Sincerely,
Marc

Dear Mr. Cornwell,

I really love the Saxon Stories. I just finished my german version of Death of Kings. It´s ok and I'm still a fan, but sadly it´s the weakest Part of the Saga.
I´m still looking forward the part seven.

And please excuse my english (it´s just standard english from school)

Sir,

My fiance is a huge fan and has introduced me to the Sharpe Series.   I just wished to say how much I have enjoyed reading "Sharpe's Tiger" and am looking forward to Richard's further adventures.

Regards,

Your King Arthur trilogy was awesome to read. I didn't put either book down until I finished. I was sad to read the last page. If you are ever in my area (San Jose, Ca), I would love to shake your hand. Thank you again.

I am on book 4 of The Saxon Stories and I am totally enthralled by the characters and the plots. Many thanks for transporting me back in time.
Kind regards,
Nick

Dear Mr. Cornwell;

I just finished Death of Kings.  It's the 2nd time I have read all the books in the series.  I am at the present  gathering your other works to read.  You are absolutely fantastic!!!  I can't wait for the next Saxon book to come out.

Just a thought...if you're tired of constantly being harangued by your fans to return to the Starbuck saga, you wouldn't necessarily have to plot out and research a new eight-book series on the American Civil War.

You could have Starbuck die at Gettysburg. Quite a few combatants didn't survive that conflict, I have on good authority.

Of course, that solution didn't turn out all that well for James Caan, but then, I'M your "biggest fan", not Kathy Bates. So no worries.

Just trying to help...

You need to team up with BBC Time Team and locate and rebury Harald Hardrada rumoured to be buried below a road in Tondheim. Not a fit resting place for the Leader of the Varangran Guard,King of Norway, the man largely responsible for William the Conquerors Victory at Hastings and the last Great Viking!Happy to help.Love the Uhtred series.
