|title= Digging Up Milton
|rating= 3.5
|genre= Historical Fiction
|summary=Digging Up Milton appealed to me because from the description it sounded like something a little bit different. I like that it is dark but yet not entirely serious, and I always appreciate it when an author tries to write in a different way, or give a book an individual voice.

|summary=This contains spoilers for Kingmaker 1, so that's probably best read first; you won't regret it! Now where were we? 1462: The War of the Roses rages on. Katherine is at Cornford Castle, posing as Lady Margaret Cornford, wife of the now blind Richard Fakenham. Not even he realises her true identity but she feels it's only a matter of time. The man who Katherine really loves and assumes dead, Thomas Everingham is suffering from a head injury. He's just remembered enough to make his way to his childhood home but is unaware of his more recent past; he can remember how to fight though – and just as well! On a wider canvas, the war has denuded England, most of its food having gone to feed the armies. King Henry VI has fled to the northeast and Warwick, the Kingmaker himself, is coming for him. The worst isn't over yet though, not for anyone.
