Just so's you know,
svalbard, this series is known as "The Saxon Chronicles", and Cornwell isn't stopping at three books. There's a fourth coming out in January called "Sword Song".
As for his Sharpe series, I haven't read any of them yet, but I have to assume they're very good because I rarely see any of them showing up in the used book stores, and thrift stores around these parts. They must sell well because all the new book stores around here keep all the titles in stock (if they didn't sell, they wouldn't stock them). The fact that they don't show up used tells me people must enjoy them so much they hang onto them to read again.
