Dear mr cornwell,

I’m a 21 year old living and working in Horsham (Sussex, England). I couldn’t help myself I just had to write to you. I’ve been reading your books for a few years now and passed them on and shared the exciting adventures of sharpe and uhtred with my friend and colleagues. It pleases me to say they we have had many debates and conversations about the characters plots and places mentioned in these stories. I have read all of the sharpe books many times and for the characters and plots in the book, sharpes trafalgar remains my favourite of them. I love history and your books give me an insight into the history of my country. Not only that but it inspires my to research and discover more about the time in history that you write about (my school never taught me about the napoleaonic wars or the Viking era). Really I just want to say that I have just finished reading lords of the north for probably the fourth time and I enjoyed it as much as I did the first time I read it. I can’t wait
for the next enthralling chapter in the life of uhtred.

Sorry for writing this, it probably took you away from important work or just annoyed you.

Thank you for all your hard work and effort.
Dean Wheeler
