Hi Mr. Cornwell… My name is Paul, I live in Gilbert, AZ. and I am a gypsy. (No, I don’t live in a wagon, play the tambourine, or tell peoples fortunes) I’m just a regular 30 year old man with 4 children and a great wife. To tell you the truth, I just recently started to love reading, I’d say about a few years ago. Before then you would never, ever catch me with ANY book. (Except my bible). The Lord of the Rings movies made me pick up a copy of The Hobbit, and I’ve never stopped reading since. And then came along the Arthur books! God bless you Mr. Cornwell. After reading them, it was like an addiction, I needed more! I started the Saxon series, and they quickly became my all-time favorite books. (I can’t wait for Lords of the North) Uthred is one of my all-time favorite characters, ever. I want to personally thank you for your work, and encourage you to keep it up. The reason I’m writing you, is to tell you that your work touches and reaches to all types of people and cultures, even me, a true gypsy living in Gilbert AZ. Thank you again, and God Bless! P.S. I’m sorry if this letter is poorly written, it is truly nerve wracking writing to a best selling author! Paul
