The Witch of Colchis (2024)
Rosie Hewlett
"Dark, visceral, unrelenting, searing-it's the story of Medea we have been waiting for, and more. The female villain par excellence takes the stage to give her version of events, in a tale that is as gripping as it is powerful and uncompromising. Medea's journey from witch to queen to mother to murderer is the dark kernel of Greek myth, and Hewlett brings it to light with unflinching, raw power-demanding that we look at Medea with fresh eyes. I couldn't put it down."
The Time Travel Diaries (2019)
(Time Travel Diaries, book 1)
Caroline Lawrence
"Caroline Lawrence's latest venture into time travel is a riotously enjoyable read that brings the sights, sounds and smells of ancient London vividly to life. The premise of Alexander Papas' time travel back to third century CE London is delightfully satisfying, quirky and - best of all - written with a real eye for historical detail, based on the finds at the London Mithraeum."
Feast of Sorrow (2017)
Crystal King
"Crystal King’s debut novel, Feast of Sorrow, tells the story of Apicius, the notorious gourmand of ancient Rome, from the viewpoint of his slave and cook Thrasius. It’s a dark and engrossing read, and provides an evocative new perspective on the rule of Tiberius."
