Hi! I’m from Scotland and as far as I’m aware, there’s barely any books that are based in Scotland that are not fantasy based novels. So is there any books thats based in modern Scotland?

New_Rest_9222 on July 31, 2025 8:51 pm Hmm neither modern, but loved both of these: Fayne by Ann Marie MacDonald Coast by Carys Davies
Any_Listen_7306 on July 31, 2025 8:56 pm Ian Rankin’s Rebus series Most of Denise Mina’s books The Outlander series – Diana Gabaldon
PatchworkGirl82 on July 31, 2025 9:01 pm Everything by Nigel Tranter, fiction and non-fiction. “Tales and Traditions of Scottish Castles” is a good place to start. “How the Scots Invented the Modern World” by Arthur Herman is excellent too
