Divided Kingdom – English Civil War historical fiction
This author blog post aims to provide a little of the backstory to my writing and the Divided Kingdom books. This historical fiction series is set in Early Modern Britain during the English Civil War. I hope you enjoy all of the novels and short stories. The Divided Kingdom books are as historically accurate as possible. There are so many extraordinary true stories from the English Civil War. They just need to be told. There is no need to invent fictional dragons!
The Divided Kingdom books take a fresh approach. They are not based on a single hero. They do not take sides. Their voices – ordinary men and women – face each other in the chaos of Britain in civil war. They are both relatable and sharply relevant today. They are also as historically accurate as is possible.
Please do check out some of my writing at Divided Kingdom Books, including the reviews, read samples and FREE ebook short story.
