The latest edition of the trade mag was waiting for me at home and Young Bloods has made it onto the hardback bestseller chart! So I am finally a real best-selling author (blushes...)
Also, the paperback of Eagle's Prophecy is straight in at number two on the Heatseeker's Chart (not quite sure what this means - but it looks nice).

Dear Simon,
I just wanted to say a big thank you for opening up to me a whole section of history about which I've always been curious but remained largely ignorant. You really bring alive the tension of the time, and make it easy to understand how these two men became the extraordinary leaders they did - though I was wondering if Arthur will ever get there - I've just left him sobbing after Kitty.
Any indications how long before we can expect the next installment? Please say it won't be long. |

Welcome Catharine, glad you enjoyed Simons book, we all do!
If your interested in the era, try:
Any of Bernard Cornwells Sharpe Books.
Iain Gale - Four days in June (battle of waterloo)
Mark Urban - Rifles.
There are others i'm sure...

Good, gives me enough time to read 'Young Bloods' first. I'm having to play catch up with all these books the Scarrow brothers are publishing.

wow does it make you feel good to be so self giving {grin}
I made a major donation recently and donated myself a brand new mobile!!

OK, thanks to recommendations here I've finally succumbed and bought this book (£8.57 hardback from Amazon and free delivery as I bought others).
If it stinks to high heaven, I'll blame you lot.
