Mr. Cornwell: Let me begin by saying you’re an amazing writer. I come from a family of authors and I am quite impressed with your creative ability. Your praises aside, I am writing for a different reason. When is the fourth book in the Saxon series going to be available? My friend and I read the first three at a ferocious pace and are eagerly awaiting the fourth. We want to find out if (how) Uhtred takes Bebbanburg. I’ve tried to discover this information through other sources. My father is a literary agent at PFD and I asked him to help us out. He sent me an email saying he could get us the newest book before it was available in the U.S. However, when he told me the title, “Lords of the North,” I informed him that I had already ordered the book from the UK and had finished it. All of this leads me to assume that the fourth book has not been written yet. I don’t mean to hurry you, I’m just hoping to learn when you think it will be published. Any information you could provide would be greatly appreciated. In the mean time, I am going to order some of your other novels and keep myself occupied. Thank you.
