Comment from the author

Look for more of this author's historical novels under my pseudonym--William Sarabande. And a note to Michael Tal: "The Lion and the Cross", a novel of Saint Patrick and ancient Ireland was published long ago, boy'o, by Doubleday in 1979 and by Ballantine Books in 1981. I have subsequently published twelve additional historical novels, Wolves of the Dawn, and eleven titles in Bantam Books internationally best selling and award winning series, The First Americans.

This is the name of ny novel! Who is this author and what s

My name is Michal Tal. My book of the same name, only spelled, "The Lion & the Cross" is a historical novel about the Spanish Inquisition, and was published by Minerva Press in 1995. Who is Joan Hamilton? When was her book published? And how did she come to have my book's title on hers? Please help!
