The
Historical Novel Society,
founded in 1997,
promotes all aspects of historical
fiction. We provide: Membership provides many benefits: we welcome anyone who is enthusiastic or curious about the genre. Because the society is such a strong and supportive community, membership is a great value. The society publishes the quarterly Historical Novels Review magazine. The Historical Novels Review aims to review every new work of historical fiction released in the USA and the UK. Selected titles from Canada and Australia are also reviewed, for a grand total of over 800 reviews per year. It is the only magazine of its kind, the best and most complete guide to the latest historical fiction in the world. Starting in 2012, the HNR has merged with Solander, our long-running literary magazine, which was published between 1997 and 2011. Our annual conferences alternate between the UK and North America. Our latest UK event was held on 17 October, 2010, at the Mechanics' Institute in Manchester, England. Our 4th North American conference was held June 17-19, 2011 in San Diego, California. Historical Novels Review Online is our quarterly online publication, featuring reviews of electronically-published and subsidy-published historical novels. Our website aims to answer your first questions about the Society, but if you have any further queries, please write us.
