Having said that, I enjoyed writing this piece - thank you for inviting me onto this blog. I wish you all happy reading! H Thank you so much for your wonderful comments.

And I completely agree...I think women had more moxie than the men gave them credit. It isn't like we invented strong female personalities here recently. I love this post!

I always enjoy a strong female character in a novel, especially when the supposed history of her time may want her to be meek and subservient. I think that I would really like Hollick's books.

One of my favorite things about historical fiction is seeing the world through different eyes. I really want to read Hollick's trilogy soon, but now I'm even more excited to read them after getting this glimpse into her beliefs. Thanks! What a wonderful, interesting guest post!
