Medieval Romance

Although I get a big chuckle from the really cheesy romance covers that grace some historical fiction, there are others that evoke more of a fairy tale romance without crossing that really 80's cheesy line - think beautiful ladies, handsome knights, white horses and castles (I'll admit that some of them may be borderline cheesy!). So Medieval Romance is a new category of covers that I will periodically feature. Plus it's a great way to highlight some older historical fiction books/authors that some of you may not have heard of.

I have that version of Light on Lucrezia! I haven't heard of the others, but now I must check them out!

Welcome to my blog collection of book covers. In the course of looking for books on ebay, I have come across some very interesting book covers. I didn't always end up buying the book, so the covers shown here aren't necessarily ones that I own. Just ones I liked, disliked or thought were funny, cheesy, etc. I'm no expert when it comes to creating stuff like this, so we'll see how well this format works. Suggestions are always appreciated!
