Hello all. I've written a historical novel. I thought there was a chance of there being one or two folk on here who might be interested.
There may be a prize for whoever can spot the most phrases or sentences that might have been inspired by lines from NMA songs. There are certainly a few.
http://www.lulu.com/shop/robert-garrod/the-field-of-crows/paperback/product-23034879.htmlI've read quite a bit of historical fiction and I get a bit fed up with 'heroic' characters who have a great fondness for lopping people's heads off and bragging about it, but are somehow still regarded as good eggs. So I've tried to do something a bit more human. The narrator, Wulfred of Ellasham, is a young Saxon warrior, but he'd rather be doing pretty much anything else but fighting the battles of his king.
The excellent cover illustration is by our very own JD.
Also I've recently discovered that the title is similar to the title of one of those Game of Thrones novels. I find this irritating, but I'm not changing it.
Oh, and apologies to admin if this is considered innappropriate self-promotion on the band's site. Do please remove it immediately if that's the case.
