Your Questions

Hello sir, this might seem too far-off but are there any plans, possible ideas for the book after the next Saxon Story? You seem to prefer doing a Saxon, then an Azincourt, then another Saxon, followed by the Fort. Cheers.

Can't find all your books on Sony ereader application. Is that something you can make happen? Love your stuff.

Hello Mr. Cornwell, First, thank you giving us such intriguing stories. I have read nearly all your books (just one Sharpe story left and the Warlord Chronicles). I primarily like to read on my kindle. Do you know why the Warlord Chronicles are not available on the kindle? Were they just published too early for that adaptation? Do you think that will be rectified anytime soon? Thanks! I can't wait for Uhtred's next adventure!! Joe

Since I do all my book reading on a Kindle now, I have been patiently waiting for the Arthur series to be available electronically. Back in September of 2009, you said that you thought it would be "soon". I even see that it is available on Amazon's UK site. Will it be coming stateside soon?

As a dyslexic, I rely heavily on audio books, and as a fan of literature, I hate getting the abridged version of a book. I feel that I lose the connection with the author's style and the literary experience is been limited by someone else's filter (even if it was the author who abridged the work). To that end, I fell in love with your Arthur Books over a decade ago when I was able to check them out of my local library as unabridged books on tape, but I've been disappointed with the recently released abridged versions through Audible. Is there any chance you will re-release the unabridged versions again as either CDs or digital downloads.

Is there another book in the Saxon Stories in the offing? I finished all you wrote through 2009.

Hello Bernard Cornwell Well I have fallen in love. Not long ago I discovered 'you' quite by accident and after reading a couple of your books became hooked. I am reading The Saxon Stories at the moment and have fallen in love with the characters namely Uhtred. I anticipate having withdrawal symptoms when I have finished this particular series. What should I do? (lol) Will there be any more in this series or a new one perhaps. Sue Parker

Good morning, Bernard. I was wondering when the next "The Saxon Stories" will be published. I'm a huge fan of the series and you. And I can't wait 'til the next book comes out.

Dear Mr. Cornwell, I'm a Brazilian fan, and last night I dreamed that I was talking with you (Bizarre, I know) so I decided to write to say that I really enjoyed your books, specially those about Uhtred adventures. Books in Brasil, unfortunately, are expensive and I'm just a student, so I have to buy it slowly, but I'm sure that someday I'll complete my Bernard Cornwell book collection. I wanted to ask how many books will have the saxon stories, and your prevision to the next book (I really love Uhtred stories) Sorry about my poor English, I'm just trying to express how much I admire you. Thanks for your attention, Amanda

I have just finished reading all five of your 'The Saxon Stories' and so enjoyed them, I had problems putting them down, so please tell me there is at least one more book to come and when. Uhtred is still such a long way from recapturing Babbanburg surely there is a lot more of story to tell. These books give such a wonderful insight in to the history and Saxon times.

Mr. Cornwell, I am so glad that I found your books. I have read all the Thomas books and then the saxon tales and I plan on finding the Arthur books. I have one question and that is if you can tell me the date for the next book after the Burning Land and a possible title.. or hint it.. Thank you so much Lukas Miller

will there be more Saxon stories? When will the next one be published? Ken Quina

I really love the Sharpe books .. reading the last two now (Waterloo and Devil). Are you planning on another ? I would also like to purchase The Fort as an eBook but cannot find it anywhere online in Canada. Will that be made available online for eBooks soon? Many thanks for countless hours of enjoying your writing. Sincerely Steve Warner

I thought I'd let you know that I bought "The Fort" for my dad and he really enjoyed it. I'm hoping to read it myself. My dad (Rob) says that you are one of his top favorite historical-authors. He loves the background information in addition to the detailed characters. He's read the whole Sharpe series and the Saxon Stories. (I hope to "visit Sharpe" sometime in my lifetime) Maybe you'll think about visiting Starbuck again as we approach the next big Civil War celebration??? I've read all 4 books and keep hoping he shows up again.... (The Civil War is still my favorite time period.) Thank you for taking time to read this note! Sincerely, Megan Hamsher

I finished reading the Nathaniel Starbuck series and in the last book, "The Bloody Ground" it stated that there would be another book in the series, however, the last book was published in 1996. Any chance you will take up the series again to finish it? Would hate to see it end where it did. Thanks,

George Heilig

Dear Sir, I am reading 'The Fort' at the moment and on page 122 (hard back) Brigadier McLean said '.... that Sir Walter Raleigh played bowls as the Armada approached.' Is this deliberate to make McLean look as he didn't know his history or a mistake? Yours faithfully John Clarke. PS I do like the way that you write stories, especially Sharpe.

So enjoyed the Alfred series - thank-you! I'm just hoping that you might do the same for William the Conqueror in time for 2016 and the 950th anniversary of the battle of Hastings.....You can probably tell from my surname that I would have allegiances. Is there anything in the offing? I do understand that your ancestor has unfinished business at Bebbanburg to deal with first. best wishes, Richard Pomeroy

I just wanted to say thanks for so much enjoyment I get from your books, having read many of them time and again, especially the Saxon series. I am certainly looking forward to Uhtred's next adventures and am sure I will be one of the first to the bookstore to read it. I was wondering though, how much time and effort you spend on researching each novel? Again, many thanks for such gripping reading.

To date I have all of the Sharpe books which were done in hardback, the last of these being Sharpe's Fury which was released in 2006. I am disappointed that a new one has not been released since then. Have you plans to release another Sharpe book in hardback form?
