Lisa Yarde - medieval author

Like I said, I've just returned from the Historical Novel Society conference in Denver and I bought a book from a woman who also writes about the 13th century!   Do you think we have anything in common?


I bought her book, Sultana, set in Granada in 13th century Moorish Spain.    As you know, the Vespers series is set during the War of the Vespers, when Aragon battles Charles of Anjou for control of Sicily.  The whole Iberian peninsula is fascinating, especially in that time period.


So go to Lisa's site - it's at:  www.lisajyarde.com and check out all her books, and, well, check out her!  She was terrific to talk to and who can go wrong writing about the 13th century?  Right?
