My Historical Novels are Now in the Vancouver Public Library!

I’m thrilled to share some incredible news—my historical novels, published under my penname, Elyse DeBarre, are now officially part of the Vancouver Public Library’s circulation! This has been a lifelong dream of mine since I moved to Vancouver as a teenager, and seeing it come true is beyond exciting.

As a classical archaeologist and classicist, I’ve poured my passion for ancient history into my novels—historical espionage mysteries with threads of romance, set in Ancient Rome, Greece, and Persia, with an upcoming one set in Babylon. Knowing that they are now available for readers through VPL is such an honour.

I’ll be celebrating this milestone with a glass of champagne tonight—cheers to dreams coming true and to everyone who has supported me along the way! If you’re in the Vancouver area, you can borrow my books via the Libby app here: https://libbyapp.com/search/vpl/creat...
