I really enjoyed his two books, Within the Fetterlock and Adventures of Alianore Audley. I understood he was writing one on Richard III but had health issues that were slowing him down. Not much on his website, anyone heard anything?

As far as I know, he's still working on the Richard III book. Have you seen his blog?

Now that's more what I'm looking for, and lots on interesting links. Wish he'd get on with the book though.....

This is another book I've been meaning to read for a while. It's hard to find a copy in stores, though...

I really really enjoyed it, but it's not an easy breezy one, very complex family relationships. I give him a huge thumbs up for having a who's who in the front of the book to refer back to.

Aside from Amazon, the publisher used to sell it directly.

The publisher, Tamara Mazzei, has moved house several times due to her husband's employment and was also floored by very serious illness for a while last year. She's back on her feet now and moving on with a couple of projects, but hasn't had time to sort out the website. I quite often talk to her - she's a good friend and shares my obsession with the 12th century, so next time I'm in touch, I'll mention it - unless someone e-mails her first of course.
