Good day Mr. Cornwell, this just, and I use the term ‘just’ as all your other fans most likely do. Well to other terms, I am really happy in saying that I love! And Hate your books, Ha! I mean no offence of course! I have read quite a few of your books as recommended by my mother, and I must say! I incredibly impressed and inspired. Your stories, no your reinactments, keep me from ever letting the book down… I read the Winter King in 2 days it was SO ADDICTING! I never dropped the book while I was on vacation, I also finished the Lords of the North in just a couple days as well… INCREDIBLE stories! Though the reasons I love these stories is because they last so wonderfully long and they keep well inchecked/detailed of the plots and environments the characters are in. I however hate the fact that your rendition completely and totally changed everything I ever knew about Arthur, though I do know there are many stories of Arthur, I take yours version though more deliberate then any. I thank you for that, but wow! As I continue to ramble on and praise you, I think you might want to know that the local stores in my area do not contain any of your older (Well I want the Saxon tales & Arthur’s trilogy) books… I find it a travesty! (forgive my spelling, the correct form slip my mind). Well I do hope you take the time to read this as I took the time to ready your books along with their notes at the end I cannot wait to read your many other books, thank you for everything Mr. Bernard Cornwell and please continue writing and researching, and may your shield wall withstand through the night and your men never grow tired! -Nick Lepperd
