WELSH WRITER JEAN GILL WINS HISTORICAL LITERARY FICTION AWARD

Jean Gill's Song at Dawn has won the Global Ebook Award for Best Historical Literary Fiction (medieval) category, at the Awards Ceremony in Santa Barabara last night.

From the Amazon Song at Dawn page:- " Historical thriller/love story set in Narbonne just after the Second Crusade. 1150 in Provence, where love and marriage are as divided as Christian and Muslim. On the run from abuse, Estela's musical talent finds a patron in Alienor of Aquitaine and more than a music tutor in the finst troubadour of the age, Alienor's Commander of the Guard. Weary of war, Dragonetz los Pros uses Jewish money and Moorish expertise to build that most modern of invntions, a papermill,drawing the wrath of the Church down on his head. Their enemies gather, ready to light the political and religious powder-keg of medieval Narbonne. "
