Q

I just finished reading Excalibur... Simply dramatic. I thank you so much for the emotions your book gave me, especially at Mount Baddon and Camlann: for years I haven't read anything which made me move like that! The description of the battles are enormous, I can't find any other word to express my feeling, but I'm quite sure you can understand what I mean. Regards from Italy.

Q

Dear, Mr. Cornwell I am sure you get very many letters exactly like this! So I apologize for making you read one more. I would just like to say that reading your books has completely opened my life into reading books, I have read all of your books, most several times each, and you are by far my favorite author. I am an American, but when I last traveled to England, I discovered your books in the airport, and ever since then I have been hooked! Thank you for all the times i wasn't bored because I had a great book to read! I dread the day when you write your last book, and hope it doesn't come for a long time!

Q

What a splendid and thrilling story - the harsh brutality of the time coming alive as no other book I've ever read - this, I think, is your best book to date, a triumph!!

Q

Mr. Cornwell, I just want to say thank you. I have read your Sharpe series, Warlord Arthur series, and I am just about to finish Sword Song of the Saxon series. Your writing is simply masterful. You provide enough information about the setting and mentality during the time periods without providing so much information that the reader becomes bored. For instance, you explain what it must have been like when paganism and christianity were clashing. You also create the characters in such a way that the reader not only understands their personalities, but the reader develops strong opinions regarding them (favorite likeables: Father Pyrlig, Ragnar, and Patrick Harper; those I love to hate: Hakeswill, Ethelred, Lancelot). It is very evident in your books that you truly enjoy your work, and I am extremely grateful. Please keep up the great work, and thank you for the hours of entertainment and education. Sincerely, Justin Davis

Q

Mr. Cornwell,I am 13 years of age and I love your books! So far I have read the Starbuck series and Stonhenge.I try to read as much of your books as possible, the only problem is at school the teacher will not allow me to read any books unless they are teen fiction, which it totally unfair. Anyway I will being going to Border's tomorrow to look for Redcoat. All the best!!!! John

Thanks John! Hope you enjoy Redcoat.


Q

I really have enjoyed the Saxon books and have now read Winter King and enjoyed it. I love studying British and English history. Your books have really made that medieval history come alive. I can't wait to read what adventures Uhtred has next as he battles the Viking invaders. For Historical Fiction I put you up there with Sci-Fi writers Asimov and Herbert. Keep the great stories coming.

Q

Dear Mr. Cornwell, In an ideal world you would write one book a day and I'd have the time to read them all. I used to think Follett would be the best deal to make, until I started with your Saxon stories. Then followed the Grail and finally I did the Arthur books (which fascinated me most, though I found it difficult to recall and pronounce all these Welsh names (for a German tongue like me ;-). Anyway, keep on writing please. All the best Thomas Krupatz


Q
