I am so excited to join, most of my reading for the last year has been either bedtime stories to the kids, career related policy and mostly text books as I have recently returned to college...my husband will be excited for me to actually read something he is interested in as he is an English major with a minor in Irish Studies so I have a pretty good selection in our own home library, thus I have no excuse to not enjoy the fruits of his education that has filled our shelves. I will work towards the Peasant level with the hopes of reaching the King. I am starting The Canterbury Tales. .-= Kristi´s last blog ..~Our Babies 2009~ =-.

In the historical fiction category, there is the trilogy “Rashi’s Daughters” written by Maggie Anton. It covers the period from approximately 1068-1105 from the perspective of a renowned Jewish scholar and his family in Troyes France. While it is historical fiction, Ms. Anton researched her subject thoroughly and is a marvelous window into this time and place.

It looks like you left off mentioning medieval mysteries. Authors such as Ellis Peters, Michael Jecks, and–humbly–myself. That’s a whole other bookshelf. Perhaps Squire level?

I think I'm going to join at the lowest level, mostly because I'm a little scared of the medieval literature, but maybe I can find one of your recommendations on audio... .-= Jen - Devourer of Books´s last blog ..The Last Challenges I’m Signing Up For Right Now, I Swear! =-.

Aha, well my question is answered. I tried to read Le Morte D’Arthur in high school. Yeah, that didn’t last very long.
