Historical Stories of Exile

Exile: a risky defiance, a perilous journey, a family’s tragic choice - or an individual’s final gamble to live. Exile: voluntary or enforced, a falling-out between friends, a lost first love, a prejudiced betrayal - or the only way to survive persecution?

In this historical fiction anthology thirteen authors have written exclusive short stories on the theme of exile. Some are based on true history, others are speculative fiction. With an introduction by multi-award-winning author Deborah Swift, enjoy these tales of exile across the ages. Some are hopeful, some sad, some romantic, some tragic, but all explore the indomitable spirit of resolute, unforgettable characters.
