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 Press translated this work.
