Andrew Kramer Great! When I first started reading 1410 it was with the notion that somehow this would end up with 1415. There are some good non-fiction books on Agincourt, but only one half-decent fictional work (Bernard Cornwell). So I pined for a realistic novel about the events building up, during, and after the 1415 campaign in France.

I now know what HEMA stands for :-)

It's great that you're doing so much research for the book, as well as others in this series.


Elinor Salter Glenn Salter Well, I would like think i can do it justice. It will be from a slightly different view than Cornwell's. What most peopel don't know is that there were actually two battalions (not sure if that is the correct term) of Cornish Wrestlers who fought in eth battle and had two large silk banners made for the occasion.
So of course Mark will legitimately feature as well. Thnak you on eth research, it is fascinating and Anne Curry ahs just released a brand new treatise citing and detailing all the Primary Sources, which should be interesting to compare to Allmand & Lt-Col Alfred H Burne's accounts.
I suspect as always I shall straddle the fence somewhat to suit my narrative.
We shall see but v exciting nonetheless.


Étienne de Vignolles I too was confused thinking that the series would end in 1414, because that is what it says somewhere (it could have been Amazon? Not sure). Anyway, just finished 1415, fantastic. Can we expect a 1416, I want this to go on until at least 1456.
