Smooth-Review-2614 on July 4, 2024 8:30 pm Have you tried any of Guy Gravial Kay’s novels? Most of them are historical fiction with a bit of magic and time compression. Lions of Al-Rossan is about the Reconqesta Song of Arbonne is set in medieval France during the reign of Queen Eleanor Last Light of the Sun about England during the reign of King Alfred the Great.
SpecialKnits4855 on July 4, 2024 8:42 pm It takes place in NYC but The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker has a Middle Eastern vibe.
