These short audio historical fiction stories all take us to a time that is past. They include a variety of genres, from literary historical fiction to historical romance fiction, but all take us to a very particular period in time, and to a very particular place. Some of these stories will take you a long way back in time, to ancient China or Regency England, while others may only stir memories of the 1940s or 1950s.
