Your Questions

I have just been researching books to with King Arthur for a website I am creating and was adding a link to Amazon for amongst other Excalibur. When I looked for the link to amazon.com I noticed they had Excalibur listed in a way strange to me: namely Excalibur : roman arthurien (Paperback) and written by yourself and Pierre-Emmanuel Dauzat. Did he co write this with you? Do you write under another pseudionym? or is this information on amazon incorrect? The UK amazon site does not mention this alternate title and author. I'm confused.

Hi Mr. Cornwell. Firstly I wanted to say I have read pretty much all of your portfolio and for me the Warlord Chronicles are simply the best books I have read! Whenever I can I recommend them to whoever will listen. My question is, in the Starbuck Chronicles one of the highlights was Sharpe's son appearing, have you considered writing some stories about him as he joined the book already battle hardened and I feel his tale would make for a great series. Lee Goodwin

Firstly I'd like to start with two simple words.... THANK YOU! I fell in love with the Sharpe TV series in my youth and decided that with all TV and movie converts, the Books must be better! You didn't disappoint. I have read them all on many an occasion. (I'V had to replace a couple of my favorite books due to over reading). Having enjoyed your work with the Sharpe series I found it natural to pick up the Starbuck chronicles, Again most impressed. Are you planning on writing any more to the Starbuck series? And are you planning on writing about the adventures of Patrick Lassan? Taking us nicely from Sharpe and Lucille's farm in Normandy to Starbucks battlefields. Thank you for broadening my passion for history and keep up the good work. All the best to you. James May

Hi, just wanted to know when the next book in the Saxon series is going to be out as I want to know how Uhtred is getting on. I also wanted to say how much I enjoy your writing I was a fan before Sean Bean came on the scene !! Louise Simpson

Hi there, Just finished reading Lords of the North, and I loved it, top notch action sequences, and really enjoyable. I had thought that this was a trilogy for some reason, but it seems like you might have a few more planned, when's the next one due? Cheers Adam

Dear Mr. Cornwell: I've completed reading "Lords Of the North" and enjoyed it a great deal. I look forward to the next in this series. I hope you won't keep me waiting too long. Thank you for a most enjoyable read. Marvin Waxner

Hi, I just finished "Lords of the North". Please tell me that you have started the next in the series. Uhtred has to get Bebbanburg back and deal with his dirty, rotten, scoundrel uncle. I have thoroughly enjoyed all your Sharpe series and Grail Quest. Please keep up your incredible historical novels. Sincerely, Charles Dwyer Jackson, TN

Dear Mr Cornwell, I have just read The Last Kingdom & The Pale Horseman and have almost finished The Lords of the North and I just wanted to thank you for providing me with such a enjoyable insight into this period of our nations past. These books are truly masterful and I wanted each one to go on and on. Is it true that there will be more books published in this series ?..I do hope so ! Next I intend to read the Arthur tales and afterwards the Sharpe series. You truly have a God given talent and I look forward to spending many hours reading through all of your books. Thank you for enriching the world with your work, Andy Green

Have you ever considered writing about WWII?

Sharpe Nut's STUPID QUESTION: Learned about PATRICK Sharpe ("son of") character from the DVD extras! Patrick Sharpe-featured in What BOOK TITLES? Their CHRONOLOGICAL order? Is Patrick in the STARBUCK SERIES or what?? Pat McHugh

Dear Mr. Cornwell I am an avid lover of all your works and was wondering if you were going to write another book following on from A Gallows Thief as there are some books and internet sites that claim that book is the first in a series? I was also wondering if you had any suggestions or advice for a first time writer on how to get started? Yours Gratefullly, Annabel

I loved the Sharpe series and thought the movies were great! I was wondering if they were going to do any more Sharpe movies? Aaron Bolis

Hi Mr. Cornwell, Hope this email finds you well. I am a hugh fan of all your works and have a very simple if slighty immature question. Your two lead characters in the Arthur trilogy and Saxon stories, Uthred and Derfel have very similar weapons and fighting styles. I know you must be seen to be impartial but really.... we are all still boys at heart.... who do you think would win in a fair fight? Anyway, keep up the god work and I"m looking forward to the next installment of the saxon stories. Best Regards Chris Hockaday

Have you ever read any Alistair MacLean novels? Stuart

Maybe I'm wrong, but I doubt you've been compared to J K Rowling, but what Harry did for my daughter you've done for my son in the Sharpe series. This past summer, my 70 year old mother and 9 year old son found common ground thanks to your Sharpe series. Any plans about venturing further into Forester and of O'Brien territory and sticking it to the Crappo's by sea, or maybe even Crusade? Jim Tonge
