Dear Bernard. I really must write to congratulate you on your work. The Arthur trilogy is my favourite with the Grail Quest following a close second. I just hope that one day we will get to see the Arthur trilogy on the big screen. Dark age warlords, confederates, riflemen, saxons and archers, whats next? oh go on, put me out of my misery.

Hi,I am a huge fan of yours.I own and have read and reread all the books from the following series of your books:The Arthur Books , Stonehenge , The Grail Quest ,and The Saxon Stories.Lords of the North being my latest .I would like to thank you for renewing a fascination I have held for medieval Great Britain .I especially liked the Arthur BOOKS.The arthurian legend is particularly interesting as there is so many opinions on its authenticity and there are many variations of the story. My question I have ,is there any future plans to translate either the arthur books or the saxon stories to film,whether it takes the form of amovie or a t.v. mini series? The sharpe series was very good on screen and I think that either the arthur books ,or the saxon stories would be as good or better. I feel qualified to say this as I own the complete set of the sharpe dvds.I am also on my third reading of the arthur books. You are a gifted storyteller,keep the books coming as I can`t wait to read the next segment of Uhtred`s adventures. possibly your greatest north american fan, David Woodcock

Hi, First, thanks for giving me so much pleasure from reading since I picked up a copy of Sharpes Eagle paperback in the early 1990’s at Hammicks! Now, about your three magnificent and wonderful trilogies (Arthur, Grail Quest, Alfred) … we have seen in recent years by directors such as Ridley Scott (Gladiator) and Peter Jackson (LOTR trilogy) how well epics can be done if the right guy is at the helm with the right budget and team… Is there any chance of you demanding a production of that quality (and scale) when they finally come to you for the movie rights rather than a cheap and cheerful one? Finally I’d just like to add my voice to all the others asking for a sequel to Gallows Thief and a finish for the Starbuck Chronicles – and once again, thanks for so much pleasure over the years!
