I read an interesting article last week and posted it. It was about the Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA) translating the oldest hand-written document by Roman Britons found in the UK.

Eboracum is the Roman name for York, U.K. The Romans spelled Eboracum with a ‘v’ as in Eboracvm and this causes some modern-day confusion over the name. Of course, it’s pronounced with a ‘u’ but to keep my Eboracum series books truer to the actual way it was, I use Eboracvm on the covers. I…

Here’s the newest review of The Village, the first book in the Eboracum trilogy.  Thanks! Graham The author of The Village says this book isn’t a romance. But I beg to differ: I fell in love with the two main characters, Cethen and Gaius. One’s a Celt. One’s a Roman. And they’re at war with…
