    ‘From Venice to Cathay ...’ begins Niccolò Rising – in this issue we visit Uzbekistan in the company of a Dunnett reader to experience the romance of the Silk Road and its influence on the novels.
    John Banks, the narrator of the newly published House of Niccolò audiobooks, summarises the four months he spent in 2018 turning Dunnett’s novels into audio productions, and we are delighted to publish the winning story from the short story competition run in collaboration with the Historical Writers’ Association in this issue. We have a detailed exposition that makes the case for Marthe knowing far more than we realise about the secrets within the Crawford family. Our covers series reaches the 1990s, with a touch more discernment shown in the image choices, and we travel with Lymond through ten cold winters.
