I’m delighted to announce my first author event of 2022!
Over the Easter weekend, 15-18 April, I will be joined by fellow authors Alice Mitchell (‘The Mortimer Affair‘) and Bridget Beauchamp (‘Maiden of Middleham‘) at my favourite stomping ground, Middleham Castle.
Gillian Savage and her team have kindly invited us back to sign and read from our various books outside the gatehouse throughout the weekend (when exactly each of us will be there will vary).
Do come along and say hello if you’re in the area!

Alex Marchant is author of two books telling the story of the real King Richard III for children aged 10+, The Order of the White Boar and The King’s Man, and a third in the sequence, King in Waiting, which continues the adventures of the young members of the Order in the following years. A fourth book, Sons of York, is due out in 2022.
Alex is also editor of Grant Me the Carving of My Name and Right Trusty and Well Beloved…, two anthologies of short fiction inspired by King Richard, sold in support of Scoliosis Association UK (SAUK).
Alex has also published a standalone timeslip novel for readers aged 10+, Time out of Time, relating the adventures of Allie Turner through a doorway into history found under layers of old wallpaper at ancient Priory Farm.
Alex’s books can be found on Amazon at:
