Today, I am excited to announce that I have published my newest historical-fiction novella, The Slave Prince of Zimbabwe, on the Kindle store. It's set primarily in the medieval civilization of Great Zimbabwe in southern Africa, around 1215 AD.
quote:Hailing from the land known as Ruthenia in eastern Europe, Drazhan Khazanov has found himself forced into bondage and brought all the way to the Sultanate of Kilwa on the southeastern coast of Africa. His master the Sultan has offered him a chance at manumission if he can abduct the fierce and beautiful Mambokadzi of Zimbabwe. But when she foils Drazhan's attempts to capture her and offers him an alternate path to the freedom he craves, they find themselves confronting the wrath of not only his former master but also the mightiest empire in the medieval world.
You can read a couple of excerpts from the new novella here on my writing blog, or listen to my reading them out loud on Youtube.

Sounds interesting. There seems not to be so many novels set in Great Zimbabwe. The only one that I have read is The Covenant by James Michener, where one chapter was dedicated to Great Zimbabwe.

I don't see why anyone would want to waste their time & money on disgusting talentless drivel such as this. People have no standards nowadays.

What's the matter with it?
