A New Novel And Recent Blog Searches

Here's a shout-out for an excellent new novel: Elizabeth Ashworth's latest, An Honourable Estate, which is set in 1315 during the rebellion of Adam Banastre in Lancashire.  (Where I was born.)  Hmmmm, that reminds me actually, I've never written a blog post about the rebellion.  *makes mental note*  If you're on Facebook, there's a page about the novel here.  Thank you to Elizabeth for mentioning me and my blog in the author's note, and so glad you found it helpful.  The novel looks terrific and I'm really looking forward to reading it.

I haven't done a weird blog search post for a while, so here are a few recent ones:

edward ii rain Either a reference to the terrible weather of the mid-1310s, or a misspelling of 'reign'. Knowing the internet, probably the latter.
