Historical Fiction Addiction

Historical fiction is a literary genre in which the plot takes place in a setting related to history, but is fictional.

Thanks, Wikipedia, for that enlightening definition! The term "historical fiction" should be self explanatory, but for purposes of this website it will mean whatever I decide it means. Here I will review and discuss various books within or adjacent to the historical fiction genre, as well as write articles and essays on the subject.

Who am I? Just a 37 year old guy who loves both history and reading, so it is only natural that historical fiction is one of my favorite genres. I am neither a professional historian nor an expert on literature. My opinions are my own and based solely on my subjective views of whatever I happen to review. My primary goal is to steer other readers toward enjoyable works of historical fiction and help to promote this expansive, under-appreciated genre.
