I wish to thank you for the hours of pleasure you have given me via the splendid Sharpe stories.I also think that Sgt Hakeswill is amongst the most evil characters that I have ever read.I wish you every success.Bill High
Hi Bernard, I know this has all been said before but I'm going to say it again. Just read Azincourt, it was fantastic. It was as if I was standing next to Nick Hook through out the whole book. Roll on your next work of art. Steve in North Wales
Dear Mr Cornwell, I have now read most of your books. It won't be long until I've read the others! I just wanted to say thank you. I've enjoyed them immensely. I have an amateur interest in military history, primarily WWII. Napoleonic warfare was a mystery to me until I encountered Sharpe. I now feel that I have some idea how Napoleonic armies functioned. I thank you for that. In particular, I love the historical notes that you add to your books. It's nice to know what is fact and what is fiction. Thanks once again. Richard
Dear Mr Cornwell, I had two or three books for Christmas one of which was Agincourt. I think I'll save it to last. Thank you for hours of great reading. Steve W.
Dear Mr. Cornwell, I stumbled across your books in my local library and have been hooked for years. I was so excited that you included the incident of Private Barton Mitchell finding Lee's plans for Antietam in Bloody Ground. I'm from the town that Mitchell lived in. Looking forward to reading more of your works!

As an Englishman with a British education now living in New York and an avid reader who is always terribly disappointed and almost suicidal (kidding) when I finish the last book that a favorite author of mine has written, I cannot put into words the enjoyment I am getting after receiving the 1st book of the Last Kingdom series for Christmas....I am now on the 3rd one and am extremely content to find out that I have many more of your books left to read. I am a student of British history and my mother was a teacher of British history at my Alma Mata in London, Westminster City school for boys and me learning things about the battle of Hastings and the Battle of Blood Bridge in 1065, Agincourt, Robert the Bruce, the whole gamut, etc etc and to read it in a novel form...it is bliss. Thank you Mr Cornwell...keep it up. By the way...love your comment about manuscripts...I have tried to write books in the past...but alas...every idea I come up with turns about to be something I read somewhere and I remember it. Steven
Dear Mr Cornwell, Just to say how much we have enjoyed your Saxon series. I didn't think I would(Terry, that is)but,I have been unable to put them down !! I am now on to sword song and have no doubt it will just as riveting. Keep them coming !! Susan and Terry Wilkins
Dear Mr Cornwell. Just a very quick e-mail and I'm afraid similar to countless other messages you will have received. Your novels have given me hours of pleasure and enjoyment, in particular the stories in which archers appear, (having been a archer myself for over 30 years)I am presently reading Nick Hook's battle with the French, fantastic stuff. Many thanks. Steve Short.
Hi! This is really just a fan-mail i guess. I am a 20 year old man from Norway, who likes to read, and therefore drop in at the bookstore from time to time. The local bookstore did have an offer on english-lingual books (3 for 2) and it was merely fate that made me pick 'The winter king', 'The enemy of god' and 'Excalibur'. I had never heard of you before, and am now glad I picked those books. I read through them all and became mesmerized. I just needed more and therefore bought the 4 books of 'The Saxon Stories'. I guess it was fate than linked me to your treasures. Wyrd bið ful ãræd. You're now my favourite writer. (Not entirely true, I cannot decide whether I favor you or John Ronald Reuel Tolkien the most, but you are at least sharing the gold medal.) This was more of a reading than I intended it to be, but I just want you to keep writing great novels, and I will keep buying them. (Believe I will start on the 'The Grail Quest' now, while waiting for a follow-up after 'Sword Song'. Yours truly Martin Seglen Baadshaug P.S. I do favor Lord Derfel Cadarn over Lord Uhtred of Bebbanburg. P.P.S. You have inspired me into dreaming of writing a novelle of my own.
Hi Mister Cornwell, my name is Salvstore and I write you from Italy, i would like to tell you many things, but i can't. Yes of course i read all of your books, and there aren't no words to describe then. They are...no words as I said I'm sorry. Maybe one day I could play one of your tales, yes because I'm studying acting in a great academy in Rome directly linked to the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts of London. Probably after my lauera in Italy I will go to England to continue my studies, I really hope to know you personally. Forgive my English in this letter. Please answer me. Thank you very much. PS: I also written a Romance concluded two months ago
