This message (which does not need a reply) is just to let you know what immense enjoyment I have gained from reading your Sharpe novels. Over the years I had seen a few of the TV adaptations but, until four months ago, had not read any of the books. I have been busily putting this to rights and have just finished Sharpe's Waterloo. You have inspired me to read up on the history of the Peninsula Wars (not something I ever thought I would want to do). A sincere, thank you !

Hey Mr. Cornwell, My name is Jeff Toft. I live in California and I have read every book in the Saxon Stories and I will soon be starting Agincourt when I can save the money to buy it! I know you probably get these a lot but I wanted to say thank you. You do a great and wonderful thing and it does not go un-noticed. Thank you for your wonderful stories and the time and dedication you have spent writing these books for people like me to read :) Your Fan, Jeff

Bernard, My brother turned me on to your books several years ago when he gave me the first 2 books of the Saxon series as a gift. I have since read the Saxon, Arthur, and Grail Quest series as well as Stonehenge, Gallows Thief, and, most recently, Azincourt. I have Redcoat and Scoundrel waiting in the wings. I have enjoyed your writing immensely and can't wait to for the next Saxon title. I will also be tackling the Sharpe series in the (hopefully) near future. I also wanted to make a point to thank you for your mention of Conn Iggulden in a post a while back. My brother and I have greatly enjoyed reading his books as well. Having a common reading history has given my brother and I countless hours of fun and interesting conversation. You have been a big part of that and I just wanted to say "Thank you". Keep on writing! -Scott


Q

Mr Cornwell, I have just been converted to your books and I think the the grail series was fantastic, I have just started the Arthur series and find them fascinating. You really catch the imagination.

Q

I cannot think of any author who gives me a hunger for more books, than yourself. You are indeed a star Mr. Cornwell and I have loved every one of your books and I have read them all (I think). I just wish that you were a robot that needed no sleep rest or holidays, so that you could pen more of these fantastic novels. Cannot wait for The Burning Land and can we have more Uhtred, Sharpe, Arthur, Starbuck and anything else you have time for..

Q

Hi Bernard I read the question/comment from Brendy Meurisse and her love of the middle ages and chivalry. Whilst you may not be able to get excited about the middle ages, may I suggest Brendy and other like minded readers try the books of Elizabeth Chadwick. Whilst a bit more Mills and Boone than Bernard Cornwell they are a good read and set in just that period. Her novel "The Greatest Knight" tells the first part of the "true" story of William Marshall, later Earl of Pembroke during the time of Henry 2nd, his sons the young Henry, Richard the Lionheart and King John, he went on the become regent to the young Henry 3rd. Her books are well researched but lack the realism of battle you seem to weave into every book, they are a bit lightweight but nevertheless a good read when you've run out of Bernard Cornwell novels!
