Dear Mr. Cornwell, Bloody though they may be (I am a peace activist), I still devour your books. As far as I know, I've read everything through Agincourt. What's next? Also, a couple of years ago, my brother and his wife moved to Blacksburg, Virginia. A drive there from DC demonstrated for my meager understanding of that region's (and my country's) history. Your Starbuck Chronicles helped rectify some of that. Thank you. Someday, when you have exhausted your "wild hares" with other topics, I hope you revisit Starbuck, if you "have a mind". Best wishes, Mary Perner Livermore, CA

Just wanted to say that I enjoyed Agincourt. the book easily lived up to my expectations. I have never enjoyed history as much as when I read your books, although I have always enjoyed it. Your books have all been nearly impossible to put down from start to finish. Agincourt is no exception. You are certainly the king of historical novels. Thank You. Carl

Just finished Sword Song. It was fabulous. Can't wait to find out Uhtred's next adventures! Get back to work!

Some how I missed the 2 books written with Judy, I assume your wife? I just finished the second one,The Fallen Angels. Wow! These, especially this last one, are among your finest! Please, if possible, continue the Lazen story. Not only was it riveting but I learned so much about the culture at that time. And, the books are about the plight of women of the time which you have not explored as much in your other wonderful books. Please, don't ever stop writing. I hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoy reading! Sheryl

Dear Bernard, You have a talent and you capture a period that I love dearly. I am of Swedish and Norwegian descent, and appreciate the Viking element to many of your works. I also really appreciate the historical angle throughout your works. To be fair, the one criticism that I have is that your anti-Christianity slant comes across in your work and damages the stories slightly. This is my observation - nothing is black and white, but I feel that you sometimes create the church (which no doubt had corrupt characters) as completely corrupt and evil. And the pious characters are far too simple minded. It just doesn't seem reasonable that all such individuals would be that way. That said, that is the only criticism I have - and I have been looking long and hard for historically-minded fiction authors. Please keep up the great work and thanks for what you do. Sincerely, Nate Anderson

I have never enjoyed your Sharpe stories,but recently I purchased your Rebel and Copperhead, books and I think they are brilliant. The battle descriptions are so well written. Can't wait to read the other two. thank you.

I am a Brazilian girl completely in love with The Saxon Stories and waiting for the 5th book. I also read The Grail Quest... such a lovely, inspiring, sad and great stories. Thank you for being a great author! Sorry for my English. Andressa.

Dear Mr. Cornwell, Just a brief feedback from a fan in Germany..I must admit I became a fan very lately...but the books are great. History was one of my favourite subjects in school and to be very frankly..history went live when I was reading your books about Uhtred. Thanks a lot for this great experience. Best wishes...Best regards, Frank Bauer

Hello, Dusti again, I was reading through the questions and came upon the one where you were asked about christians being upset. I am a christian though I wasn't one way back then (referring to the settings of The Winter King and Enemy of God) and I'm sure the faith has changed somewhat, but I wanted you to know that I think every opinion you express in your books is wonderful and brilliant. Thanks again
