I went into this book knowing absolutely nothing about Christopher Marlowe except that he was a contemporary of Shakespeare. What a surprise! At least I didn’t have to worry about historical accuracy, since I didn’t know any better. Though I do know ...more | |

I’d say the trilogy is the best way to read this chronicle, because it’s impossible to put down. Our warrior druid, Bellicus (or Bel, to his friends) is a huge, young, intimidating fellow with a heart of gold. This takes place in the early days of Ki ...more | |

Don’t let the title fool you! This is not about Spain or anything Spanish. Think of Castilians as in castle—St. Andrews Castle, more specifically, in Scotland. This is the lesser-known story of a radical group of Protestants who murder Cardinal David ...more | |

Falling Pomegranate Seeds: All Manner of Things (Katherine of Aragon #2)
by Wendy J. Dunn (Goodreads Author) |

I found this novel to be a different approach to Katherine of Aragon than I was used to. Told from the point of view of her companion and best friend Maria, we see a Katherine who is hopelessly unhappy. From the first, she was guilt-ridden because th ...more | |

Naturally, although it would not be a snappy title at all, this book would more appropriately be called “Royal Ladies Unjustly Accused of Witchcraft”. Only two of the four women accused were actually queens, and the accusation against Elizabeth Woodv ...more | |

As expected from the title of this book, we see a young and untried Antonio Perez, son of a man who was betrayed, arrested, and hung as a traitor. Not a very auspicious start for a champion! At first, Antonio seems an unlikely hero; he is scrawny, he ...more | |

Volume two brings us more of Richard’s evocative poetry in prose form. The first part of the book, imagined stories to the background of songs, are like a slice of life—just like the songs are. Some of the tales are set in ancient times, some in mode ...more | |

You are very sweet, Majenta. I'll be out very soon with book 3 of my trilogy, then on to a different century. I love the Godwines and will miss them, but so many other histories await!
