Mr. Cornwell. My name is Ryan Montgomery and I am 16 years old and live in Chapel Hill, NC. I first discovered your novels when my mom accidentally bought me Sharpe’s Company thinking it was a different book. I decided to give it a try and eventually ended up reading the whole Sharpe series in a few months. I was never that big of a reader but your books have opened up a new world for me. Since Sharpe, I’ve read all The Starbuck Chronicles, all of The Grail Quest, and I have one more book the read with Uhtred. I dont think I can wait for January to read Lords of the North so I’m considering ordering one from the UK along with Sharpe’s Fury. I never thought I would read a better book than Gods and Generals but you have written a few that I have enjoyed even more. Thank you for writing these great novels and please keep em comin. Ryan M.
