Hello there thanks for reading this I appriciate how busy you are. I work at the local college in England down near Exeter and have been teaching some students about the saxon/norman times. Your saxon stories have got their attention – great writing considering these students keep me busy I received Lords of the North for Christmas and had finished it within a week (spent most of the college holidays reading it), it helped me get through a nasty cold as well when stuck in bed. I just had two questions. Bebbanburg Castle, it sounds very much like Tintagnel castle down in Cornwall, have you heard of it? I went there to propose to my fiancee a few months ago and could just image this impenetrable castle being held by a few men (could be a good link there!) also there must be a fourth book in saxon stories coming soon and can you tell me when? but seriously thank you for a wonderful read. I thought after the sharpe books couldn’t get any better! also think they would make a great movie and if they do let us know “I know a great castle down here HA HA !”and always wanted to be in a movie (maybe play Uhtred’s long lost welsh brother!!) but seriously thanks for bringing history to life for me and a whole new generation, many thanks, Michael Hurley

Question. When will the follow up novel to “Lords of the North” be released in the UK ? Rob McNeilly

I have just finished reading The Lords of the North a very good read.When can we expect the next book in the series? Looking forward to this.

I’m writing to ask if you have a time frame for the release of the 4th book about Uhter, I have read the pervious 3 and also managed to get my husband to read them and he enjoyed them so much he has passed them on to friends. I have read a number of the sharpe books and really enjoyed them. Thank you so much for the entertainment your stories have given me.
