Mr Cornwell I just wanted to thank you for your wonderful imagination. You have give my brother's,father and myself have found so much enjoyment in the pages of your books.We each have different preferences but enjoy all that we have read. My brother's eagerly awaits your new Sharpe's books and I bought Dad the new Agincourt for Fathers day.I am slowly working my way through all that we have and filling out those that we are missing. Thanks again we selfishly wish you the best of health and a long life. your sincerely Randell Pepler. Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada

Just to let you know how much I have enjoyed your books over the years. Not many writers can keep me up at night or sustain me through a pan-Pacific flight. You always do. Please don't feel obligated to reply. I can't wait for 'The Burning Land'. Again, thanks so much.

I just want to say I am a huge fan of your books. I am an avid student of history and just recently discovered your works, and am delighted by the accuracy down to the detail you put into into them. The Arthur Books were excellent as I did a rather large piece on a 'historical' Arthur and then found that your story paralleled to a great deal what I found in my research.

Mr. Cornwell, A short note to tell you how much your books have meant to me over the previous ten years or so. I discovered your writing by round about means when I was deployed in the US Navy. As you might imagine, any distraction of a few hours was much welcome. I first came to Patrick O'Brien novels and then, via recommendations from Amazon, to the Sharpe novels in India. I devoured all of them. Many hours have been passed since then in the presence of Sharpe, Uhtred and King Arthur-all wonderful stuff though I am partial to the Warlord Chronicles (at least so far). So I thank you sincerely for being a friend and a story teller for all these years. Please continue with you excellent work knowing that I will continue to read whatever you write. And when my novel is published, I will send you a copy (not before per your request). Again, thank you for all of the entertainment over the years. Best Wishes, Patrick Huey Camas, WA

Dear Mr Cornwell, Nate Starbuck has been on a 13 year vacation, up until Sharpsburg, the Rebels have had it mostly their own way, Billy Blythe is still deserving of his forthcoming retribution and Pecker Bird is a long lost memory. We have not discovered why Lincoln is so revered in American history, and if Nate will ever discover Adam's death or tell his father what he really thinks of him! I could go on to the the girl Nate ends up with, and if he survives defeat and emancipation to name but a few unanswered questions. I've read everything else in your wonderful catalogue, and another 1 or 2! Starbuck books would make millions of people really happy! Kind Regards Carl Fox

Mr. Cornwell, I have been collecting your books and series for many years and have read and reread them all several times over. There is always so much more depth, so many more layers to discover after the plots are known and familiar to me. Unlike other authors whose series I enjoy, you never lose continuity or simple character descriptions. For example, I have encountered in others different hair and eye color and even names from one book to its sequel in other authors, but never you! Sometimes I have to wonder who is proofing their manuscripts! Well, I put up with it because I am a great fan of historical fiction, especially the Arthur tales, although I don't suppose his story is strictly historical fiction! Your series is one of the best and most enjoyable although I have to say the "Mists of Avalon" ranks up there for me because of the importance of the women as the main storytellers - not a common perspective. I like Jack Whyte's version as well. But back to you, I just want to say that I appreciate your gift so much and look forward to many years of reading and rereading your works. Thank you so much.

Sir Just had to let you know how much I appreciate your books. I have completed The Grail Quest and The Saxon Stories, all in the space of a month, and looking forward to Lord Uhtred's final tale. I also have all of Sharpe's tales, on DVD, I am ashamed to say. :)

I have just reread the Sharpe Stories and enjoyed them all but in varying degrees. I thought that Sharpe's Sword had a touch of Arthur in them especially when Sharpe threw the Sword into the water. Sharpe's Waterloo was an intense read with the battle running virtually throughout the all book. Sharpe seemed a bit supernumeracy at times in it but I think that was deliberate. However my favourite book was Sharpe's Devil it seemed to me to have all of what makes Sharpe stories so good and fun to read. Thanks for the entertainment again. How about writing about Sweet Williams adventures in America. Just a thought.
