Looking for historical fiction set in unique time periods and countries!
Books I’ve loved:
Mark of the Lion series – Francine Rivers
All Barbara Wood books (these have the most amazing settings!)
Mara: Daughter of the Nile
The 7 Sisters series by Lucinda Riley
Must be low-spice. Not during WW2. Not a fan of super gory/sad. Also don’t love flimsy beach reads
.
Need an amazing adventure where I can also learn about cool places and times in history.
