Your Questions

Thank you so much for all your wonderful books.
I am confused - in 1356 Thomas has been knighted, but there is no reference to that in Heretic.  Am I missing something?
Thank you

I have been reading your books for twenty years now.  All of them. (Within the historical fiction genre).  It is my belief that yourself, and others like you, are institutional in creating a panoramic view into history that is more educatory, possibly even more accurate within the novelised format, than many of the non-fiction class degree level works available, which can sometimes read like a spreadsheet.  I believe that an author of your ilk could do so much for the extra-curricula education of Scotlands keen history enthusiasts.  Something that has, for a long time, been all but obliterated from the school/college curriculums of Scotlands falsley labeled independent education system.  No Scot (published) has took up this challenge since Nigel Tranter romaticised our greatest moments with Chekov-like brush-strokes.  Scotland is screaming out for a Bernard Cornwell...perhaps you could champion, patron...or even whip up a literary Wallace for us.   Or even have a nibble yourself....
Sincerely.  Neil

Dear Bernard

After reading Sharpe's Havoc and your liking for the character, Dulong, I wondered if he would ever appear again in another Sharpe's novel as it seem's sad he should just vanish and never be seen again. Apparently he was at Albuera, is there a possibilty that Sharpe could meet him again there perhaps?

Btw in relation to one of your previous posters question. I believe in the Starbuck book Rebel there was a Major Pelham who had previously fought at Blandensburg 1814.
As a one off story have you ever considered  Blandensburg and North Point particularly with the Anniversary coming up.

Yours sincerely

P,S If you have not read it I can recommend Donlad Hickeys Don't give up the Ship the myths of the war of 1812, there is even an interesting article comparing the American and British Baker rifles as well as Wellington's comments on the war and how it should be fought.

Hello Mr. Cornwell
In History Chanel's Vikings the main character is Ragnar Lothbrok. Is there any possibility that he would be the father or predecessor of Ubba, Ivar, and Halfdan Lothbrokson? I tried to do some research on Ubba and found out he is also known as Ubba Ragnarson and Ubbe Ragnarson, but no answer to my original question. Do you know?

It is reported today (and has been reported/rumored for years) that Michael Mann has agreed to direct a film based on your book Agincourt.  Is that confirmed?  Will you be involved?  Is there a target for its release?

Hi Mr. Cornwell,
I am a huge fan of your novels especially the Saxon stories and was wondering about how many more novels you were planning on adding to the series? I would also like to say that I have enjoyed reading your novels and cannot wait for more Uhtred!
Sincerely, Todd Rivett

I was just wondering if the warrior chronicles will continue?? I truly hope so! Many thanks
Tim

Dear Mr Cornwell,
I am bursting with anticipation as to the next instalment in Uhtred's story!
Please could you let me know when this is likely to be published?
Best Wishes

Hi, I named my first child Seren as I liked the name from the warlord chronicles and figured I could do worse than name her after one of Derfel the mighty's daughters! I have done my own research and found that it derives from a Gaulish goddess but any background you can give me on the name, how you became aware of it etc would be appreciated!

Good day Mr Cornwell

I am an Avid fan and would like to thank you for the great work, without reading one of your books for a school project I very much doubt I would ever have read a book.

I would like to ask you - Is there any one particular book or series which you hold close to your heart or are most proud of writing about ahead of any others?
secondly, I know you have plenty on your plate with regards to writing more books, so I am not asking if you have plans for this in the future but more interested if you have ever flirted with the idea of writing about the British excursions in South Africa during the "Boer War"? As a South African with a British mother I take an interest in this type of history.

Thank you for all the great work and I look forward to "The Pagan Lord" when it reaches our shores.

Dear Mr Cornwell,

Greetings from Timor-Leste. I write to ask one question and say many thanks for your books, which I enjoy as much on second and third readings as I did on the first. I am currently re-reading the Saxon Stories and was interested to see an Aethelhelm pop up. My question: In history did Aethelwold (Alfred's nephew)  have a brother of that name?
Thanks again.

Dear Bernard,
As a proud Man of Kent, (worlds apart from those lowly Kentish Men) I was wondering have you ever considered writing a novel or novels about those greatest of Kent Saxons Hengist and Horsa, they surely are a rich seam of intrigue, violence and greed.
I love Kent and it is woefully under used in historical Novels as a county it still sings of its Ancient roots in its place names, and surviving Traditions. Of all writers I think you are the only chap who could do Her the honour she deserves.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
