Texreader 🤣 5y

GingerAntics @Texreader it‘s as close as we‘re going to get for the moment. This refers to Normans and apparently there is a distinction between English and Normans at this point. I‘ll take what I can get, though. 5y

Bookwomble @GingerAntics Sassenach derives from Saxon, so despite being technically English myself, having Viking ancestry I'm telling myself that I'm dodging both the 'sassenach' and 'mochyn' arrows 😁 5y

GingerAntics @Bookwomble I‘m part Celtic (Irish and Scottish) and part Viking, so I‘ll give you the pass. We could be distant cousins. lol I found out yesterday that particular spelling as not actually the Gaelic spelling, it‘s the anglicised spelling. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I swear that woman didn‘t even try. 5y

Oh, it just got real!
I feel like I need to find the Welsh version of Sassenach. lol
I‘m kind of sad because this is set just after the English take over Wales...and we all know how that‘s going still. The last two sentences of the first chapter have given me hope, though.

@Texreader seems this one is going to be similar to Gareth and Gwen. I‘m still excited to read this. Perhaps I should be a bit concerned she can think up so many ways to kill people. lol

Interesting word and a fun little historical tidbit!

DGRachel Ooh, that‘s fascinating! 5y

Texreader That tidbit alone makes me want to read it 5y

GingerAntics @Texreader @DGRachel it‘s in reference to an English character, so I‘m still not sure how it‘s going to apply to the story, but it is an interesting little tidbit and so far it‘s a good story. 5y

Texreader Oooh! New series?? 5y

GingerAntics @Texreader yup! I‘m very excited. There was an excerpt at the end of the last Gareth and Gwen book in July. It‘s set at a different time in Welsh history than Gareth and Gwen, apparently. Closer to another of her series, the only one I‘ve never read. I‘m very excited about this book. I know what I‘ll be doing this weekend. lol (edited) 5y

DGRachel Ooh, I can't wait to hear what you think. This has promise! 5y

GingerAntics @DGRachel you know me, I will keep any person who follows me posted on the progress and my thoughts on this book. lol 5y
