BOOK NEWS

 

HELLO, EVERYONE! I have great news for those of you waiting for my new historical fiction novel, FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM! I am currently writing Chapter 30 of what looks to be a 35-chapter book. I am still anticipating publishing this second book of THE WARS OF THE ROSES SAGA around the fall of 2026. FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM is my tenth novel, and my sixth in the Historical Fiction genre. THE WARS OF THE ROSES SAGA is a two-book series, which serves as the prequel to the already-published series, THE TUDOR CHRONICLES. The four novels of THE TUDOR CHRONICLES are available now on Amazon as individual books in both Kindle eBook and paperback. There is also a box set with the first three books, the fourth book being purchased separately at this time. The first book of THE WARS OF THE ROSES SAGA, TO THINE OWN SELF [1457-1483], is also currently available in both Kindle ebook and paperback. With the upcoming publication of FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM [1483-1509], this will complete my six-novel series documenting the TUDOR ERA. I hope you enjoy reading them!

  • FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM begins in 1483, where TO THINE OWN SELF, the first book of THE WARS OF THE ROSES SAGA, leaves off. When the story begins, King Edward IV has died, and Prince Edward, now King Edward V at age twelve, is on his way from Ludlow Castle to London to claim his throne. By Chapter 19, which I am currently writing, the Princes in the Tower have long since disappeared, Richard III has been defeated and killed at the Battle of Bosworth Field, and King Henry VII is facing a second Pretender to his throne in Perkin Warbeck.

    Needless to say, I am time traveling daily back to the 15th century, where I am immersed in research, that I might tell this fascinating tale as accurately as possible. While I greatly enjoy doing this in-depth research, part of the joy of writing Historical Fiction occurs when the available information is so vague, or worse, conflicting, that the writer must fill in gaps in knowledge with what we think really happened. I’ll be posting my progress here monthly, to keep you all up to date on what’s happening with this final book of my chronicle of Tudor Era history.

    In the meantime, if you haven’t yet read the four books of THE TUDOR CHRONICLES, these tales can provide any reader with an immersive experience that I am certain you will find absorbing. All four novels that comprise THE TUDOR CHRONICLES are described in detail here on my web site.

    If you want to start at the beginning, read TO THINE OWN SELF first; but remember, FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM will be the book that bridges the gap between THE WARS OF OF THE ROSES SAGA and THE TUDOR  CHRONICLES. When FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM is published, you’ll be able to begin reading about the Tudor Era with the birth of Henry Tudor in 1457, in TO THINE OWN SELF, and read straight through to the end of this epic tale in 1603, with the death of Elizabeth I, in the fourth book of THE TUDOR CHRONICLES, THIS MIGHTY REALM. For now, if you want to start with Henry VIII, Katharine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn, begin your Tudor journey with the first book of THE TUDOR CHRONICLES, which is THE NYMPH FROM HEAVEN.

    Just a reminder, the second book of THE TUDOR CHRONICLES, THE BAKER’S DAUGHTER, is in TWO VOLUMES, and each must be purchased separately. This is because it is a very long book, and Amazon has page limitations for paperback books. The covers of the two volumes are slightly different colors, so you can easily spot the difference.

    Also, the Virtual Box Set of THE TUDOR CHRONICLES [Available on Amazon] has the first three books of THE TUDOR CHRONICLES series. I have not yet added the fourth book, THIS MIGHTY REALM, to this virtual box set, but I plan to do so after FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM is published. Right now, the fourth book in the series, THIS MIGHTY REALM, can be purchased separately from the virtual box set. All of the published books in both series may be purchased individually, in both Kindle ebook and paperback.

    Thank you very much for being a reader of my books! I’ll be back next month with a further update! Until then, please visit my Facebook page, where you will find hundreds of historical posts and interesting photos!

    Thank you!
