Hello Bernard, just wanted to let you know that here in Perth, Western Australia I too cannot get enough of your books. I have devoured them frantically since the "Tiger". Now I cannot find one I have not yet read ... please write faster, and more, and faster. And seriously, it's important that you recognize when to conclude a series, even though we yearn! It's a great way to have us! Linda Mortimore

Wishing you and your family all the very best for a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. I look forward to reading all of your excellent books as they continue to be published and thank you again for all of the entertaining reads to date. I enjoyed meeting you at the Sharpe Appreciation Soc "10th Birthday Bash" & at your book signing/talk at Waterstones, Bath. Hope to see you again in 2007 (perhaps at an event with all the other SAS gang when next on weapons demonstration duty). Best regards, Martin Parfitt, Salisbury

Just wanted to thank you for all the good hours I have spent with Sharpe and all of your other books. Bruce Cranstoun

Mr. Cornwell, I just finished The Archers Tale and am anxious to read the next book in the series. I started reading your work about a year ago with The Last Kingdom. I find the way you write to be very captivating. Descriptions of trees and clouds, sheilds and ships are so complete, it is very easy to simply close my eyes and smell the stench from a pig stall or the salty air of the ocean. The way you weave historical content and fictional characters is fantastic. I have read many comments from admiring fans and just wish to add my gratitude. It sounds like you're going to keep up the good work. Thank you. Buddy Boyd Nampa, Idaho

Please please complete the starbuck chronicles, love sharpe, but like nate even more tks. Peter Dalton

Thanks for your efforts. I have enjoyed all your works that I have read. While it may mean that you sell a few less copies, I have made it a policy to pass them on to the VA hospital in Houston, TX after I am done. They seem to be much appreciated there. Keep it up, you are entertaining a fairly large group of old fogies who remember the smoke and confusion not all that different from what you describe in the "Sharpe" series. Thanks,
Richard Goldy

Barnes and Noble will not have "Lords of the North" until January, 07.I am looking forward to going on another adventure. Thanks again. John Eaton

Hello there Bernard, no doubt at this time of year Derfel would be freezing his little stump off having been denied just one log or, in his heydey, would be cosying up to Ceinwyn; Harper would be finding Sharpe some Roasties whilst he was finding trouble; Thomas would be embroiled in some new adventure (please?), likewise Nate and Rider (I don't know of many other authors who have at least three great protagonists that the fans are screaming for to be perpetuated!) and last but certainly not least, we know that there will be many a Yule before Uhtred warms his bunions beside a roaring Bebbanburg fire. However they may have spent theirs', here wishing you a merry one from gold 'oul Norn Iron (we're not Brazil) Allyn Mills

Having completed the Master and Commander series, I was looking for another historical fiction series...God Bless Librarians! She suggested "Sharpe's Triumph" which I just completed, yesterday, and began "Sharpe's Tiger" this morning. WONDERFUL reads, both. The period dialogue...characters and battle scenes-BRILLIANT!

I have just listened to Fallen Angels on a talking book, and would like to complain. I use these talking books to get to sleep - and could I do that whilst reading this masterpiece? Could I heck. I ended up lying awake for hours while I played tape after tape. Seriously, though - this was one of the most enjoyable, thrilling books I have read in a long time. Many thanks - can we have some more like it please?
