Celebrating medieval women

It’s Women’s History Month. My novels celebrate real medieval women who receive slight (and misogynistic) mentions in medieval chronicles. I have tried to imagine my way into their lives and experiences from a few sentences in the historical record.

The Viking Hostage is based on the true story of a French noblewoman kidnapped by Vikings and held hostage for three years.

Almodis: The Peaceweaver tells the story of the scandalous 11th-century countess of Toulouse and Barcelona.

My Conquest trilogy recounts the story of the Welsh noblewoman, Nest ferch Rhys, during the period of Norman invasion and conquest. Celebrate a medieval woman!
