Dear Mr Cornwell,
Just wanted to say I am a huge fan of your works, in fact you are probably my favourite author. I have just finished reading the Saxon stories series from start to finish (for the 100th time) and about to read sharpe series for 1000th time. The pagan lord was absolutely enthralling, what I would like to know though, is this the end of Uhtred as we know him? What I mean by this is does his son, Uhtred, take over the narration of the books from now, or does Uhtred recover from his injuries and survive and be able to narrate in the future?
Thanks very much and I know you just get questions like this all the time
Iain

I am new to your books but I love them , I have read the Warrior series and I am now reading the Arthur series , is The Pagan Lord going to be the last of that series
Thank You Dave Buck

Dear Sir.  I enjoy your books so much, I’ve just finished The Pagan Lord and hope there is another chapter in the Uhtred story.  Can he please live to be 90???..
best wishes.   Clive.

Dear Bernard,
I literally just read the last page of the Pagan Lord…. Wow! Thank you for an excellent book! I thought Death of Kings and The Lords of the North (my personal favourites) could not be touched, but this book certainly hit the spot.
I will not write anything that might spoil the ending for those who haven’t read it yet, but there is no doubt about the possibility of at least one more Uhtred book or perhaps even more following the fate of his son(s)! Is there anything planned? Can you confirm that?
I am a bit of a sucker for lost dreams and thus cannot avoid comparing the history of Alfred the Great, who was never to see his dream of a Christian England come true but whose offspring continued that dream, with that of Uhtred and Bebbanburg! Perhaps it will be his son(s) who follow his dream? I was very touched by (and admittedly fearful for) Uhtred the son and your portrayal of him and his brother.
I will close by saying that I have often been grateful to an author for a book, and to one or two grateful for 2 or 3 or even 5 books. This is the first time I have been grateful for 7 books in a row. I wish I could start the 8th today.
Best regards,
Stephen Smith
