Lady of the Ravens by Joanna Hickson #Book Spotlight.

I am delighted to feature Joanna Hickson's The Lady of the Ravens on the blog today. Published on 9th January, it takes us back to England under the Tudors.


My baptismal name may be Giovanna but here in my mother’s adopted country I have become plain Joan; I am not pink-cheeked and golden-haired like the beauties they admire. I have olive skin and dark features – black brows over ebony eyes and hair the colour of a raven’s wing…

When Joan Vaux is sent to live in the shadow of the Tower of London, she must learn to navigate the treacherous waters of this new England under the Tudors. Like the ravens, Joan must use her eyes and her senses, if Henry and his new dynasty are to prosper and thrive …



Praise for Joanna Hickson:

‘A great tale… the golden thread that led to the crown of England’
Conn Iggulden

‘An intriguing tale, told with confidence’ The Times

‘Rich and warm’ Sunday Express

 ‘Bewitching…alive with historical detail’ Good Housekeeping



About the Author



Joanna Hickson spent twenty-five years presenting and producing News and Arts programmes for the BBC. Her first published book was a children’s historical novel Rebellion at Orford Castle but more recently she has turned to adult fiction, concentrating on bringing fifteenth century English history and some of its fascinating principal characters to life. She is married with a large family and gets inspiration from her Wiltshire farmhouse home, which dates back to her chosen period.
