The Stars of Heaven by Jessica Dall
I do so love a great historical fiction tale. This book covered a period of history that I know little about and has led me to go looking for more.

Song of the Shaman (Songs of Steppe & Forest Book 2) by C. P. Lesley
I love Historical Fiction, especially when, like this book, the time period has been so well researched. However, I rarely find one written about the 16th Century that is such an easy read. This author kept to a more modern angle when writing the dialogue, and that will make this an excellent read for even … Continue reading Song of the Shaman (Songs of Steppe & Forest Book 2) by C. P.
