tremendous amount of self published books and small press books out there. This week The Fish Shelf, along with other
bloggers, is highlighting self published authors that could use a bit more
recognition.

Don Gutteridge is rightly known for his Marc Edwards
Mysteries, but Lily’s Story is a massive thumping good historical read
as well.
Ruth Nestovold’s Arthur books are fun if you like King
Arthur. She even retells the Ragnell
story.
Ruth Berman’s Bradmant’s Quest makes good use
of history and romances to tell the story of Bradmante.
I J Parker has several mysteries and some historical
fiction that takes place in feudal Japan.
J Tullos Henning The Books Of Wode series is a
good take on Robin Hood.
Toby Venables gives us Robin Hood from another point
of view in his Guy of Gisburne Series.
Esther Sligson’s Yearning for the Sea is a
novella about Penelope. Yes, that
Penelope. It’s great that Frayed Edges
