Historical Fictionistas discussion

There are so many interesting sounding books coming out in 2012. I can't wait for Death of Kings by Bernard Cornwell (next in the Saxon Chronicles), The Flower Reader by Elizabeth Loupas, The Queen's Vow: A Novel of Isabella of Castile by CW Gortner, Her Highness, the Traitor by Susan Higginbotham and The Second Empress : A Novel of Napoleon's Court by Michelle Moran.

Anyone else got ones they're looking forward to?

The Winter Palace: A Novel of Catherine the Great by Eva Stachniak
The Baker's Daughter by Sarah McCoy
The Book of Madness and Cures: A Novel by Regina O'Melveny

Holly, is it difficult for you to use the "add book/author button at the top of the comment box? Think of all the people copying and pasting.... to check out your titles. I was thinking that maybe you are writing this on a phone and that it is impossible to click on such?! Thank you for the list of titles, and for starting the thread. I love Gortner's books. What is this one about?

Empress of the Seven Hills by Kate Quinn.

The Wild Queen by Carolyn Meyer
