Medieval Tonbridge....

Angus Donald was in Mr. Books not half an hour ago. Who is he? He is a Tonbridge-based successful author of medieval historical novels. The success of his first two books Outlaw and Holy Warrior have led to publishers, Little Brown, siging him up to write another ten in the series. Seems like a nice chap and suitably excentric for an author. Of course I managed to sell him a couple of history books and sign him up for the next Tonbridge Book Fair in October. Alys Clare is another well known and locally based successful historical novelist so there must be something in the water around here. Or maybe it's the influence of the splendid 12th Century castle we're blessed with....
