Interest in HF: Hard to say. Been interested in history most of my life, so a good fictional twist is always fun to read. Right now I'm most interested in the early history of Detroit, which I have been researching for a series of books, the first of which I recently finished.
Favourite HF book: Possibly Mary Stewart's Merlin series.
Preferred HF: Not really.
Location: Detroit, MI
