10 Best Historical Fantasy Books to Read This Summer

By Leah Essen: "Lately, historical fantasy has been having a moment. Writers are penning vivid stories of magic and battlefields, of ghosts, djinn and monsters against backdrops drawn from real historical events, from the Abbasid Caliphate to the early days of the Ming dynasty. You can immerse yourself in the Cuban Revolution or explore the Dust Bowl; follow a fierce band of fighters as they take down parasitic KKK monsters or watch a golem and a Jewish girl slip past Nazi forces. These ten must-read historical fantasy books use fiction to enhance fact, layering the surreal atop the real in ways that feel both thrilling and true."https://observer.com/list/best-historical-fantasy-books-must-read/
