I just thought I'd mention that my pirate adventure book Sullen Shores is currently free for five days on Kindle. Great or what?!
I am an avid historical fiction reader and I’m also a writer. My debut YA, Lioness of Punjab will be released in the fall of 2022. Look forward to connecting with all of you!
Hi! I'm new to the group but have been on GR since 2012 and am active in several other groups. Historical Fiction is one of my favorite genres so I thought I would check out the group!
Hello, I'm Ruby and I'm an American currently living in Morocco. I enjoy Asian/Asian-American HF, and also enjoy Tudor England (or similar) HF. I'm active in a few other groups but I need a HF fix!
Hello everyone, from Holland, or The Netherlands to be correct. I am new here, so need to get oriented. Needless to say, I have also written a first novel, but I used my real name, Nelson K. Foley, when most people know me as Keith. Nelson sounds better! And , it has a long family history going back to the Battle of Trafalgar. I am also indirectly related to Arthur Conan Doyle (ACD). His mother was a Foley, and he married my great grandfather's sister - and my great grandfather married Conan Doyle's sister. ACD is not exactly historical fiction, but good literary ancestry.
Welcome, Nelson! My husband and I were in the Netherlands in 2018 and enjoyed it very much. We would like to come back sometime soon.
Just got a nice little push in Reedsy Discovery under best historical fiction, so feeling my way through the publicity minefield.
Hello everyone, I'm new to the group and feeling my way. Though I've written four novels, only two are in the historical fiction genre. They are especially close to my heart because they are based in the same area of Kansas where I grew up. I'm currently taking time off from my writing to read and enjoy a long series written by another novelist.
Hi, I am new to this group, but recently have been reading a lot of historical fiction and am always looking for new books to add to my TBR list.
Hi all! I am new to the group and to GR in general, but I am an avid reader of historical fiction. I joined the group to get some variety in my selection of historical fiction and to inspire me to read more often!

Hi! I'm Andy, I'm from Mexico and I'm excited to start for the first time with a discussion book group.
Hello fellow Historical Fictionistas. I’m Don Pugnetti Jr., and I’m grateful to be new member of this group. My home is in the State of Washington of the United States. I have a passion for reading, particularly the genre of historical fiction, and writing, which has been the dominant part of a long career in journalism and public affairs. I’m proud and excited to tell you that I have a book coming out on February 1, 2022. A Coat Dyed Black, a historical novel about a simple Norwegian farmer who is transformed into a resistance fighter after Nazi Germany invades his nation and imposes its tyrannical rule. It is based on true events and real experiences. While dialogue, details, some descriptions and a few events are fictionalized, I attempt to stick to history in an often overlooked part of World War II. Currently the book offered on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. For those of you who want to read it, I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for this opportunity to tell you about my book. Again, I’m so happy to now be a member of this group.
Hi. My name is Barbara Martinez. I'm excited to see what everyone in this group has to say about my favorite genre, historical fiction. My favorites are American historical fiction, especially the 19th century, but am happy to learn about other localities and time periods. I enjoy reading stories of fictional characters who find themselves in the middle of monumental times and how they were affected by the events of their time. I enjoy Civil War era stories, especially ones like The Second Mrs. Hockaday where we learn about the lives of the women who didn't fight the battles but fought to keep the families together.

I enjoy and read mostly historical fiction, non fiction, mysteries and fantasy genres. I have been wanting to read The Exiles, so I joined to participate in that reading.
