Mr. Cornwell, I am an aspiring author and I happen to be an avid reader of your work. I am obsessed with medieval history and especially anything to do with Vikings and their history. Knowing of my interests, my husband picked up The Last Kingdom and brought it home for me to read. I went out the very next day and bought the rest of the series. It killed me to wait for Sword Song. Since then, I have gone on to read your Arthur Books, The Grail Quest series and Gallows Thief. I have recently ordered The Starbuck Chronicles and plan to start reading them very soon. Even knowing I might have to wait some time for the others to follow. I think your work is amazingly talented. I hope I can be half as good as you are someday. I have read several authors in several different genres and none of them move me the way your work does. I also happen to be very interested in William the Conquerer. Does he interest you? Do you have any plans to write about him? Tricia Leigh Wood
