Yesterday evening, I attended a book reading by the author Katia Fox at the book store Hugendübel in Bad Homburg.
We had been in contact for a while and last night I finally got to meet her (she had just moved back to her hometown, Bad Homburg) and I am very pleased to know her books will become available to English readers on the U.S. market as of next year.
Because of her second book Der silberne Falke, I somewhat became interested in falconry and visited Falkenhof Feldberg, where she had done her research. The falconry is close to home, up on the Feldberg in the Taunus mountains.

Her book reading had close to a full house with clerks having to bring extra chairs. It was a pleasure to meet Katia and learn more about her books, research, and the author herself. The setting for her books is England around the 13th century.
The following books are available on Amazon.de:

Dear Maria,
I was so pleased to finally meet you! I am excited about the trilogy to be in english soon. The first book The copper sign will be available in January 2012 on Amazon.com
I loved telling the audience about my books and enjoyed the silence while I was reading. Thank you for coming!
Katia Fox
Can’t wait to tell my English-speaking friends about your books!
I remember my German friend Odina handing me your book and saying “You’ve got to read this!”. Well, she knows me and she was right.
It was a wonderful evening and I’m glad I took some photos:-)
