Hi, I've recently found several of your books available in electronic form on the Sony Connect store. I enjoy them very much, and I'd just like to encourage you to release the rest of them in that format so that we might be able to enjoy Sharpe's complete stories electronically! Thanks again, Brian

Hi!I live in Brasil and I have some doubts about Sharp´s books.I can´t understand their order.Here in Brasil the fourth book published of this serie was Sharpe in Trafalgar(the original name is Sharpe´s Trafalgar).But the fifth book published here was Sharpe´s Rifles and not Sharpe´s Prey as it is said in your site.And it doesn´t makes any sense at all, as they don´t say how Sharpe was prometed to tenent and how he lost all his money. If it´s a mistake of the publisher, please tell me so that I can complain with them.Thank you very much for your help. PS: I love your books! Gabriel

Mr.Cornwell I would like to ask you why don't you launch the Sharpe's books in a Correct order,, I mean they released the 1st, the 2nd the 3rd the 20th why not 1st,2nd,3rd,4th,5th,6th. Its giving me a very hard Work to find them here in Brazil (They released the last kingdom on last Thursday November 30). John Axe

Sorry, but the order of publication is entirely up to the publisher!


Q

Hello Mr. Cornwell, first of all, thank you for the hours of nonstop military action. I am a 13 year old and you are the only author of miliraty action that I know of that gets the blood running. Have read both Shaara and John Jakes. A wate of time! But to the point. STARBUCK! Civil war is my passion and don't you think it's time to give Sharpe an 'extended vacation.' Yes, the famous 'When Sharpe lays down his rifle' is your answer but will Sharpe ever lay down his rifle? And finally, you can't just leave Starbuck in the air ... Please, PLEASE, PLEASE, continue Starbuck. Ryan


Q

Love your work. Knew very little about the LAND actions involving Wellington before Waterloo, having been a career US Navy Officer, the Nelsonian period dominates. My expertise is the US Civil War and Roman Military actions so your work is especially worthwhile for me. Please let me know if any more Sharpe books are written. I have everything listed and read them in order! Also enjoyed the Thomas Hookton series, the Archer. Warmest regards, Joseph Picogna


Q

Mr Cornwell I have just finished the Grail Quest and I would like to say that I think it is one of the best set of books I have read. I am now reading Sharpe's Fury and am soon going to be reading the saxon stories. I would just like to say thank you for writing the books. David


Q

Hi, i have previously read Stonehenge so when I saw your name on a bookspine i ended up buying "Harlequin". I have just finished reading "Vagabond" from the library so will have to hunt down "Heretic". My 18yo daughter, Genevieve, is only just getting into Arthurian tales so hopefully she will reach for more historical ones at a later date. Thankyou for the great bedtime stories... thats the only time I read. Jenny


Q

I am so glad you found my message about Warburton and St Werburgh of interest. Needless to say, if you decide to use her story in one of your Saxon stories I will be absolutely thrilled. Your view of the various miracles of the Saxon saints seems remarkably similar to Uhtreds. When learning to read, under Beoccas instruction, from a life of one of the saints, Uhtred questions why the saint didnt do a more useful miracle. Well, yes. And much the same applies to St Werburgh. She apparently performed other miracles, but the one with which she is most associated concerned geese. There are two parts to this. One is about subdueing the wild geese which were destroying her fields of corn (theres that word corn again and her? fields of corn??) and the corollary is about resurrecting one of the wild geese stolen, cooked and eaten by her greedy steward. You can find amazing amounts of information about her story on the internet. Who knew? Clearly this speaks to a different way of looking at the world. Elizabeth Smith

It does, doesn't it. Reminds me of the sketch on Not the Nine o Clock News where the daft-as-a-brush animal lover goes round collecting cooked ducks and returning them to a pond. It was the same programme that hired the moving news flasher in Leicester Square and put up the message: 'Watership Down. You've read the book. You've seen the film. Now eat the rabbit."


Q

Hello Mr. Cornwell, Thanks very much for so many hours of enjoyment and excitement. I'm especially excited tonight because I've just found that Lords of the North has arrived in the only library in my county! And since I haven't had my hands on a book in this series since the spring, this is a special treat. I also enjoy the work of Conn Iggulden, and bought his first Caesar novel because of a favourable comment by you on the back cover. I e-mailed him to express my appreciation of his work, and now I'm happy to do the same for your work -- thanks very much and may you write many more! Yours sincerely, John Stevens
