Devil's Brood by Sharon Kay Penman, who will be doing a short interview on my History Buff blog soon! Unfortunately, she was forced to cancel her upcoming book tour due to a hospital stay, so any warm wishes sent through her site would be much appreciated, I'm sure. It must be very difficult to cancel a tour that's been in the works for months.
I'm really enjoying Margaret's Laurence's "Hearts and Bones"....She has excellent sense of the times....spinning a mystery tale that takes place in a small village in 1786 Maine...Hannah, a Midwife and mother is such a interesting character and the author has supported her with a diverse group of villagers .....

Sharon seems to suffer so badly with her health. It's such a shame.
Now I am reading The Birth House by Ami McKay.

I know that her writing has been affected by her illnesses. No idea about tours etc.

Devil's Brood just arrived on my doorstep. Such a shame about her health, it's been such an uphill battle for her. She has such a loyal following that I'm hoping her sales won't suffer by the tour cancellation. Speaking for myself, I'd read and recommend any of her books --- tour or not.
