James Heneage
James Heneage set up the Ottakar's chain of bookshops before co-founding the Chalke Valley History Festival and turning his energies to writing his own books. The Mistra Chronicle, his quartet of historical novels set in the Byzantine era, was followed by A World On Fire, an epic adventure set during the Greek War of Independence in the 1820s. He lives in the Peloponnese with his wife, Charlotte.
