Your Questions

Mr. Cornwell, My name is Carolina and I'm from Brazil. Me and my friend Verônica are doing a school's project based on Arthur's legend. So, would you describe to us Arthur's crest with all the details? In the Brazilian cover of "The Winter King" there's an image of Arthur's bear, but we need the colours, the shape and the background of the crest. If you could send us a picture, you would help us a lot. Thank you sooooooooooooo much! Carolina and Verônica. P.s.: We LOVE your books :D

I have been reading my way through the Sharpe novels chronologically and have recently finished "Battle" - which now is my favorite. "Tiger" is my next favorite. I was wondering if there is there is a Sharpe novel which you enjoyed writing more than others? LOL - excluding the monetary compensation. Best regards, Joe - Fenton, MO

At the moment, you're in the middle of Saxon Series, Starbuck Series, Sharpe and have just written Azincourt. How do you decide to add to a current series, start a new book or series? Simon ps I enjoy all your book series, but the books Redcoat and Gallow's Thief are the best. Any chance of a sequel? Simon Windsor

Hi, my name's André Morelo, I'm a Brazilian graphic design student, and concerning the historical knowledge that is presented in your books, I think that maybe you could help me. I've already read some of your books that were translated to Portuguese, and I'm even trying to buy some books in English, and I really liked The Grail Quest, and Thomas, the archer was really great. Anyway, for my graduation project, I want to make a card game based on great conquerors, and generals in history, and since you are a great historical-romanticist, I would really appreciate if you could give me some hints of historical generals, and conquerors. If possible with yours commanders, and allies. By the way, I really need a lot of those characters, around 40, if possible, if not, just a few is all'right. Thanks for your time, and please keep writing! André Morelo

Dear Bernard. Yes! Well done, you thrashed us in the one day series. I may have solved Sgt Hakeswill's final destination. Just test the Australian cricket sides DNA? But what I would like to know is where did the Saxons originally come from and did they bring Christian beliefs to England? Lords of the North)Regards Kevin- South Africa.

Dear Mr Cornwell.... firstly I have to congratulate you on your captivating writing style! You rank amongst my family as one of the best. When I find myself waking up, reading your book in the bathroom whilst brushing my teeth (once leaning out of the shower to finish a chapter) - walking down the stairs (dangerous) and whilst eating you know you've found a fantastic author. My problem is that I'm such an avid reader that I've devoured all your books on more than one occasion! I realise this is a strange request but I wondered if you could recommend a favourite novelist of your own or one with a similar style? Fully understand if you don't wish to give details of another author but believe me you won't lose fans! Kind regards Gareth

Hi, I started with The Grail Quest series and then The Saxon Stories. On a whim, picked up Redcoat. Had never been that interested in stories of that period. Loved it. Went through The Starbuck Chronicles in about two weeks and only took me about two months to devour all of the Sharpe Novels (awaiting book order of Waterloo and Devil). My question is, are there any plans for future Redcoat, Starbuck, or Sharpe novels? And I must admit, your sense of humor that you insert into Sharpe and Harper's banter is hysterical. My wife usually gives me queer looks as I laugh out loud. I look forward to a reply at your convenience. Sincerely, Brad Grace New London, Iowa

Mr. Cornwell, I live in Memphis, TN USA and,like all of your other many fans, can not get enough of your splendid writing. I have written to you before a few months back, but did not ask you this question.....Do you think you would ever come to a city anywhere near Memphis for any reason? I would love to just be able to see, in person, the most brilliant, powerful, amazing author and creator, and have a chance to say "Thank You" for all the intensely, yet fabulously, addictive stories I have EVER had the privilege to read. I can not get enough of your books. I read them over and over and over....and each time I feel as though I know the characters personally as old friends. I find myself wanting to be IN the story and very sad that I can not. I hope one day to meet you, but if I never have that honor, I will still forever read anything and everything you write. May you continue to be blessed and bless all of us with your wonderful writings. Toya Ryan

Hello and thank you so much for your tallent and sharing them in your novels. I was curious where I can obtain all the books you have written in a set. Thanks you again for your time. Bill

Dear Sir, I have read all of the Saxon stories, The Grail Quests, The Arthur books, and all of the Sharpe books. They are the best books I have ever read! Your stories leave me wanting more. I think that your version of Arthur is the best. I was wondering if you ever thought about writing a series based on the Crusades or even the American revolutionary war. I can't wait for the next book in the Saxon series and the Azincourt to come out. thanks for the great books. Erik Duffy
