I just wanted to recommend this National Geographic March, 1985 165, no.3 volume. It contains a Vikings article on their eastern conquest!

I just wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed the Saxon books - eagerly await the next one! Having read these I am a somewhat late discoverer of the Arthur books which I devoured! I can understand why they are your favourites! Thank you for giving so much pleasure.

Thank you for interweaving my two favorite subjects into one writing style. I would love to write the way you do. You are a true writer in a society built on television and video games. I will continue to read every book you write (not too quickly so I run out of material!) and will patiently await your new releases. You're the reason I am still reading, thank you.

I just wanted to drop you a note of thanks. Around the beginning of the year I wrote, ordering copies of Sharpe's Christmas, Sharpe's Ransom and Sharpe's story, having located them on the Sharpe's Appreciation Society webpage. You might guess at my surprise and delight in not only getting these books, but with your autograph on them. (You might also guess at the unbridled envy of my office colleagues when I showed them this boon.) Thank you very much! Besides being a huge fan of Richard Sharpe, I am, and all of us at the office are, huge fans of your work period. We all appreciate your solid story lines, fun and complex characters, and fast-moving action, but how you weave these into actual events of history (with appropriate license) adds an additional element to your works. We often try to scoop one another in being the first to get a copy of your latest offering. (I usually win.) Obviously then, I am very excited to have learned that the next installment of the Saxon Series will be available in the coming months. I immediately shared this with my friends at the office. We will see who is first to get The Burning Land. Once more, thank you very much. Regards Russell Craig P.S. If it means anything, we'd all like to Mr. Richard Sharpe and Patrick Harper on more adventures. There's always the July Revolution or the Crimean War (good for father-son outings with Patrick-Henri).

I have just finished the book "Lords of the North" I must say I was very pleased, I picked it up on passing in the library simply because I was fascinated by the fact that you wrote a novel about Agincourt(though I have not read it.) I am about to leave to pick it up from Barnes in Noble to buy. I am going to pick up your Saxon series now as well. If you could offer any other such readings that you know it'd be greatly appreciated. I do so love this period in time and do have small ideas for a series a little later(I read your message and will say no more) just wanted you to know you rekindled a part of me that has been dormant for almost a decade.

Greetings and good afternoon from Washington, DC. It's been a long time since a particular author has so thoroughly grabbed my fancy and I believe I owe you a heartfelt thank you. So thank you! I started reading The Grail Quest this winter and it looks like I'll make it through everything you've written within a calendar year. And I do mean everything. I've read most of the other series and have read the first 13 books of the Sharpe series in less than a month. How I wish I had this enthusiasm in school! Keep up the great work. You're magnificent! Warmest regards, Kevin

Bernard, I have to say with all sincerity that you have become the 3rd of my preferred authors,alongside Tom Clancy and Frederick Forsythe. Being a truck driver here in New Zealand I get the audio books from the library and play them whilst driving, the radio stations are crap.Really enjoy Sharpe and the Saxon Stories. You do write really good and attention retaining books, look forward to reading more. Oh, by the way, listening to the books while driving does not distract my attention from said driving. Thank you so much for being part of the reason I go to work each day. Keith D Bonner.

Mr. Cornwell, My introduction to your work was with reading Agincourt. I enjoyed it so much, that I just completed your Arthur Trilogy. WHAT A GREAT READ! Thanks for the "ride." I am going to begin the Saxon Stories next. My enjoyment of your work would not allow me to just finish reading the book and enjoy the read without somehow telling you what great enjoyment I derived from the read. I am a minister and was even able to draw a bit here and there for illustrations. In fact, I make reference to your series in a manuscript I completed for a lecture I am delivering in Lubbock, TX in October of this year. I look forward to reading more of your work.

I just want to say that I love your books - the historical stories really bring history to life and hopefully inspire those who don't already have an interest in history. I have just finished "Azincourt" - it was excellent! I like the way you have shown both sides of the battle so well, and also appreciate the French version of the name which is very fitting for this story. I am going to have to read the books you have given as references now... I may be a Scot by birth but I can still cry "God for Harry! England and St George!"

Dear Sir, Now that Sharpe just has his daughter to meet, presumably in South America, it would be good to see how Nate Starbuck ended the Civil War - perhaps becoming the clergyman he was once intended to be ! Although as fighting men the two characters are similar, I have always felt you maintained the integrity Of Starbuck and as an introduction to the American Civil War which we in the UK don't know enough about, I thoroughly enjoyed reading the four novels. When staying in Shippensburg, Pa. in 2003, I then knew what to visit and what to look for. Hoping very much as a retired Andrew, that you will complete the Chronicles. Yours faithfully Steve Goodall, RN retired.
