Mr. Cornwell your books are the best books I have ever read in my life. I am addicted to the Sharpe's series and I have read it through many times. I have learned a lot due to the Sharpe's books. I have gone in search of more books relating to the Napoleonic era and I have found many good ones. Especially the books by Charles Oman, which contain loads of information that I cant help but to enjoy the information. Well thank you sir for making such a great series. Sharpe will be forever my favorite. Robert McGahan

You really need to write about twenty more of the Starbuck chronicles. I am 18 years old and really love to read and these are by far the best books I have ever read. Ben Rowe
Great books! Wish you wouldn't let them be abridged, or let the publisher put ads at the end of them, as they did at the end of the audio version of The Pale Horsman. (The author's notes are excellent, though.)

hi Bernard- thanks for the reply, what i think is when Thomas Mallory was writing about the legend of Arthur he had King Edmund 1 in mind, i don't doubt that there was a celtic King called Arthur but the legend seems like the life of Edmund 1st- also strangely enough the name Arthur becomes popular Henry 7ths eldest son was called Arthur, Henrys father was the welsh Edmund Tudor- the welsh Dragon was also the symbol of Wessex - Arthur and Uther were pendragons, Edmund 1st and his father Edward was also known by the title the Elder ( or head of a council) one very strange coincidence is that Edmund reigned from 939-946 exactly 1000 years after ,the second world war began Englands darkest time with the threat of invasion. Edmund died at Pucklechurch in Gloucestershire defending his servant from an outlawed murderer - a king defending his lowest serf- this king was the very essence the legend of King Arthur is all about.

Bernard, I would just like to take a moment to tell you that I am a huge fan and avid reader of your work. I've readjust about everything except for the Sharpe series, which I am going to start on next. I just want to tell you to keep up the good work, and I'll be eagerly awaiting you next release. Thank You Matt Sample
Greetings Mr Cornwell! I can't believe how much I enjoyed first The Pale Horseman and then Lords of The North. I devoured the last in a day. Thank you so much! I can't wait for Uhtred's next adventure. Sincerely, Melinda Thompson
I thought it about time I wrote and expressed my thanks for the many, many hours of enjoyment your books have provided. 2 years ago a friend gave me Harlequin to read, and I have now just about read your entire collection having completed The Bloody Ground this morning. I have tried to where possible to read each series in its entirety before moving on to the next. I was under the impression that the Starbuck series was complete and was dumbstruck by the ending. I do hope you find time/motivation to produce another episode. Before reading Starbuck I was worried that I may find the Starbuck character and situations too similar to Sharpe but I am pleased to say this was not the case. Please keep up the fantastic work, I am really looking forward to book 4 of the Alfred series. Thanks again Martin Croucher

I have recently been to India(twice)doing so made me appreciate the detail and quality of Sharpe's Indian era.I took on the second trip "Fortress" which reading it on a 8 hour train trip to the Hindu temples at Hampi, brought the book to Life being able to look at the land it was featured in .Many thanks for your wonderful descriptive writing .Michael Parks.
I do not write in to places or people. This is totally abnormal for me. However, your book Excalibur was the first book I have read from you. I read it several years ago, 7 or 8 to be exact. This book was one of , if not the best book I have ever had the pleasure of reading. In fact your book is the only book I have ever read more than once. I have read Excalibur three times cover to cover. I just wanted to express how much I respect your work and wanted to let you know that you are officially my favorite author to this day. Keep up the good work! Brandan Burke
