Some more Friday Finds:
--I’ve heard a bit about this in the online forums I frequent: The White Queen, by Philippa Gregory. Coming out in September. Not sure if it’ll be any good; Gregory’s been churning them out recently, and in my mind a good writer of historical fiction should take their time researching their subject. Still, I might read it.
--Another I’ve heard a bit about: The Lady in the Tower, by Alison Weir. Due for publication in the UK around this time next year; it’s a biography of Anne Boleyn.
--Elizabeth Kostova also has a new one coming out in October. It’s called The Swan Thieves.
--Book 32 in the Morland Dynasty series is coming out in the UK in November: it’s called The Fallen Kings, and it continues the story through (I think) the end of WWI.
--The Unquiet Bones, by Melvin Starr. The first in a medieval mystery series. In the wake of the plague, a murdered corpse shows up in a castle cesspit.

Comments
I still haven't read Kostova's The Historian, despite owning it for three years now, and I've never even heard of the Morlan Dynasty series. Any good?
I will also be interested in seeing what The Swan Thieves is about. I like the title. Not that I have read her first book, but still!
