Dear Mr Cornwell,

I was given “Sword Song” by a family member. I kept it for months without reading it. I very picky about what I read and sword song did not fit the bill. I decided to give it a shot manly out of boredom. I assumed it would be one of the many books i start but never finish.  How wrong i was hooked as soon as Uhtred chose to help his friend rather than have a kingdom. I read the series in this order 4 2 5 6 i still am searching for books 1 and 3. I can not afford to buy them online but have faith i will find them in a used book store. I just wanted to let you know that your books inspired me to read things i would normally over look.  I can not wait to read more about the saxons and the danes i humbly await the chance to stand beside Uhtred in the shield wall.  P.S i passed Sword Song to a friend, he loved it
