The Emperor's Sword (2024)
(Chivalry, book 6)
Christian Cameron
"One of the finest historical fiction writers in the world."
thumb
Leeward (2023)
(Nightingale & Courtney, book 1)
Katie Daysh
"One of the best debut novels I have read in many years. A magnificent, compelling read."
thumb
Gods of Rome (2021)
(Rise of Emperors, book 3)
Gordon Doherty and Simon Turney
"A page turner from beginning to end... a damn fine read."
thumb
Napoleon's Run (2020)
(William John Hazzard, book 1)
Jonathan Spencer
"This is an outstanding novel, made even more remarkable by its début status. I loved it, from the first page to the end. Better than Sharpe, gripping and intense, Napoleon's Run deserves to be a runaway success."
thumb
Camelot (2020)
Giles Kristian
"Glorious. Tragic. Lyrical. Totally gripping."
thumb
The Exiled (2019)
David Barbaree
"Outstanding. An extraordinary recreation of ancient Rome. Miss this at your peril."
