BRAG Medallion Award

Just found out that The Witch of Napoli has earned a 2015 BRAG Medallion award. A real honor.

You'll find some quality historical fiction on their website (www.bragmedallion.com). In an ocean of uneven indie prose, the medallion serves as a welcome beacon, guiding readers safely through the shoals of some embarassing literary wreckage out there.

I've already reviewed BRAG winner Helena Schrader's "Knight of Jerusalem" on Goodreads; and have teed up on my "To-Read" list books penned by a half-dozen other BRAG awardees, including Historical Novel Society's Helen Hollick (The Sea Witch Voyages Series) Aargh!; Sophie Perinot and colleagues ("A Day of Fire"); Paula Lofting's recent BookBub selection ("Sons of the Wolf"); Glenn Craney (two-time BRAG awardee); Janet Oakley ("Timber Rose") and J.D. Smith ("Tristan and Iseult"). Smith is a member of the vibrant Triskele Books collective whose authors include Liza Perrat, author of the excellent WWII novel "Wolfsangel" I reviewed on Goodreads.

Strong writers, all. I'm honored to share their online shelfspace.
